- Thin compacted snow on the Annette Lake trail. Micro spikes might be helpful.
- Crunchy snow a few inches deep until the trees open up around 3400'. Unfortunately not enough snow low down to make travel over brush and blow downs faster.

- The road to the Annette Lake trailhead is has a few inches of icy snow, but it still driveable.
