Updated: September 24, 2018 | Print Report

Trails are wet and muddy with snow at high elevations. Fall colors are looking great and larch viewing should be fantastic over the next week.

Notes:

Early season snow has started to fall at higher elevations. Pack appropriately for changing conditions and don't forget to dress in layers!
Be wildlife aware! Traveling in groups, making noise on trail, keeping pets on leash and carrying bear spray is highly recommended. See the Wildlife Safety page for more information.
Caution is advised for natural hazards such as downed trees and other natural hazards.
