[pct-l] Who hiked Fuller Ridge this week?

[Joel Fisler]

I hiked it last Wednesday, there is not really any snow left, you'll have no problems. Here is the report I sent to AsABat for snow and water report:


Snow:
There is still a bit of snow at Fuller Ridge but just small patches of maybe 20 to 30 feet maximum. Absolutely no problem to follow the trail now.

Water:
- 6/6: Highway 74 water cache: many gallons left
- 6/6: Penrod Canyon: Yucky standing water and lots of Mosquitos.
- 6/7: Fobes Saddle Water Cache: Only two gallons left.
- 6/7: Apache Spring: seems to flow well. Last source till Taquehitz creeks
- 6/8: Taquehitz creek flowing strongly (sometimed till October a park volunteer told me!)
- 6/8: Strawberry creek flowing wide. Then little creeks every half a mile until Deer Springs
- 6/9: Deer Springs is more a river than a creek! From there no water along Fuller Ridge until Black Mountain Road.

Here you can find my trail journal and some pictures of Fuller Ridge and the snow: http://www.pct2010.org
