Second Time Up Hood

Go back to Oregon Cascades.

April 22, 2002 via South Side: Started at a very reasonable hour of 5:30am from Timberline. Conditions were excellent throughout the day. Snow got relatively worse above Crater Rock where a 1 foot layer of soft/wet snow concealed an icy layer underneath. Hogback was icy. The ‘berg’ was about 4 inches wide at this time. No roping up on the way up/down although did see multiple roped parties descending and sliding all over the place. Nice windless summit.
