Anyone been up there in the last week? Snowshoes for the upper part or not?
I figure the snow's nice and consolidated, but I figured that on Hood last weekend and was post holing all over the place.....any info. is much appreciated...
Thanks! amy

Some deeper stuff and no clear trail to the top past the junction of the Starvation Ridge Trail and the main Defiance trail. We picked a path of least resistance through the trees with a bit of postholing for some of us and knew we'd cross the road eventually.Took the Defiance trail back down...some slick icy crap when you just descend into the tree line on that trail. About 400 to 500 ft. below that point, no snow, great trail conditions....except that it's Defiance and your thighs are on fire by the time you reach the waterfalls at the end
