sundance pass, dawson, gunsight

by messner666 » Wed Aug 10, 2011 9:12 pm

Have some trips planned in the next two weeks. Does anyone have beta on snow over Sundance pass, dawson/pitamakan pass loop, or gunsight pass? Just curious if axe and/or crampons are needed for any of these.

Trail status report for Gunsight Pass indeed sounds sketchy... however, I've heard that the Dawson-Pitamaken loop is safely passable. I believe some snow will be encountered, but it can either be safely bypassed or easily negotiated (snow conditions permitting, of course).
