Trail was muddy in sections but otherwise in decent condition to the cable crossing at 4 km

Trail is well marked in good condition but is very wet through the meadows. Make sure your boots are waterproof and wear gaiters! Patches of snow higher up. Mosquitoes and black flies were bad as expected at this time of year. The new cabin is fantastic. We had a great night stay!

Road was a little wet but not muddy and was still drivable.
The trail is in good condition, a little muddy in some spots but overall not bad at all. Pretty much no snow anywhere on the trail. Very buggy in some spots though.

Trail was in good condition, most deadfall cleared to the first 2 lookouts, but lots of vegetation higher up to navigate and bugs are out in force, no snow to deal with, but some muddy trail sections.

Minimal windfall on the way up. Still snow in the alpine. Alpine creek was flowing fast and the snow bridge near the end was degrading but still passable. Maybe for not much longer. Muddy sections were not too bad honestly.

Road to the trailhead was in good condition and was easy to drive. Trail was quite wet but most of the snow is gone and in only smaller patches. Did not hike over to the actual Caledonia mountain peak and just did the closer summit, the ridge for the closer summit had very little snow that can be easily avoided. The path to go down over the saddle to the lake has lots of snow on it though and you would need to be quite careful going down.
Overall trail is quite wet but in good condition.

Very, very wet. Torpy Trail consist of flowing water in multiple spots. Crossover portion sopping wet due to the recent melt. Patches of snow near the top of the ridge that can easily be walked around or walked on top of. Fun glissade on the way down! !

Trail is quite wet especially at the start where its virtually impossible to not get soaked feet due to the depth and length of the water. There were a few small sections of snow but nothing to hinder hiking all over the alpine.

Trail was quite wet from the recent rain and sections of snow were encountered in a few spots in the alpine, only 1 section climbed was a bit slippery due to the snow and the angle of the slope, micro spikes recommended, otherwise its a great hike and most areas were snow free.

Trail was basre to the Cabin, then a few snow pockets heading up Hyland Pass but easily navigated. Most alpine lakes still partly coverage with snow/ice

The trail was mostly dry until several hundred meters from the first meadows in the bowl. As we approached we encountered pockets of snow and eventually past the meadows snow was mostly steady, however the ridge walking up top was clear of snow on the south face. We did not bring snowshoes and it was ok going.

Baldy. Solstace. Bad bugs between 3800′ and 5600′.

Can drive to the top of the road with a 4×4. Patches of snow up to the lookout and then bare to just before the summit. Snow at the summit and a heavily corniced ridge beyond.

Viking ridge conditions are pretty good. Brought snowshoes up based on others hike information for the area recently. Only snow is on the shoulder of the ridge and I did not need snowshoes. They just added to the exercise 😂. The meadows are wet however

The road to Baldy (Fraser Flats) It’s open. They’re working back in there, however CN requires it locked when contractor is not working in the area as per the crossing agreement. Likely open during the week while they are working but may be closed on weekends or longer periods when the contractor is not actively working. Best to expect it to be locked on the weekends just in case

While at Fang yesterday, a rock slide occurred above the trail between km 2 and 2.5. A piece of the mountain fell off and landed on the trail right where you pop out of the trees to traverse scree slopes. The debris scrubbed most of the scree exposing rock slabs and taking out trees. My partner and I did not venture out underneath where the slide occurred and do not know how supportive the remaining material over the rock slabs is. A good alternative for accessing Fang is Torpy Trail

Good to go and beyond.

Trail is clear of snow, drive 3 km up the road to the trailhead.

Raven Lake June 6th conditions: still snow on 70% of the trail in. Snow shoes weren’t essential, u can walk on top of the solid snow. Still some crusty corn skiing above the lake.

Access to the Fang (and The Farm) Trailheads are good to go, road is clear, please remember to bring a radio as there is a lot of traffic on the Pass Lake FSR for the first 18 km

The Gleason FSR is washed out a few km down the Gleason after the McGregor Bridge

Trail is mostly gone but wasn’t too far to get to the falls, we put a ribbon on the main road showing the best spot to hike down to the falls to minimize bushwacking

Trail is clear and dry but bugs are out in full force so dress appropriately or donate blood, your choice!

Trail is a little muddy in places but the bugs are out in full force

Dry for first 1.5km then snow shoes necessary. Soft snow transitioning to hard packed at higher elevations.

Trail has loads of blowdown, 50+ trees up to Rockingham Creek Camp, no snowshoes required to Rockingham, but they are needed shortly after and snow was rotten until final ascent to the upper lake at camp #2

Had to walk in about 600 m from trailhead as road still snowed in. Snow was like hiking up a mash potato mountain all the way so took 3.5 hours up and 2.5 down. Snow crust is weak except at the meadow. We were the first ones up in a while and ++ rain so had to really watch for the markers to find our way. But there is a trail broken now

Drive to the trailhead was no problem with a minivan, the road just past the trailhead is snow covered and slushy but easy to turn around at the trailhead though a little muddy. The trail itself is mostly clear of snow/ice with a little bit near the start of the trail in the flat shady area, otherwise clear the rest of the way.

The majority of the trail is snow-free, except for the first 400m. You have to park 100m before the Crooked River bridge (for now).
The FSR Road in is in good shape.
Now head out to Teapot and hike your ass off before the mosquitos arrive!

There was snow right from the trailhead, and while you do not require snowshoes for the first 3 km, the snow conditions were mushy in places and slippery making snowshoes a good idea. 7 people in 3 different groups packed the trail up to the cabin, snow is getting soft and sticky this time of year.

Wineglass Falls and Pinnacles Park today around Quesnel. Both basically snow free, but the last kilometer of the road to Wineglass was quite muddy and rutted.

First 3.5k no snow shoes, then persistent snow after that all the way to the lookout, trail is broken to the summit

Viking Ridge is icy for the first 1.5 km, Sugarbowl is terrible for its first 2 km, both require microspikes or snowshoes to grip on the ice, Sugarbowl is especially treacherous!

Snow conditions at the crossover were excellent, a little soft but good grip on the snow and we were able to move easily across the ridges, including going down Sugarbowl mountain.

The trail is in decent condition with the first km having icy spots requiring micro spikes or snowshoes. There is constant snow on the entire trail and VERY deep snow up in the meadows and beyond. A couple packed the trail all the way to the summit as I spoke with them in the meadows and could see their tracks all the way up. I only hiked to the meadows, then to the rock bluff lookout.

Trail is mostly clear with some sections of mud, water and snow.

The trail was mostly clear, we didn’t need snowshoes or micro spikes but some sections could use micro spikes for those with poor balance.

Trail is very clear, a few spots a bit icy but cleats not needed. A few trees down requiring a chainsaw. We cleared a couple spots with a hand saw. Once it warmed up some greasy mud spots. Overall good conditions.

Majority of the trail was ice/packed snow in the trees with the open areas having deeper snow on a packed trail. Snowshoes not needed but cleats recommended.

The trail is snowshoe packed to the viewpoint in the meadows. The trail was post holed the first 2 km. Dark clouds and windy conditions made us decide to head over to the side lookout toward Baldy which was covered in more storm clouds so we headed back to the trailhead.

We packed about 4 km around the homestead area and the fields following the edge of the Fraser and doing a large loop back to the homestead. Snow conditions were not bad.

The Caine Creek FSR is not plowed this winter so that would require 3.5 km one way packing trail to get to the trailhead.

PAcked the trail to the first lookout, then down to the cave, then up the bushwack gulley from the cave back to the road, and then to the top picnic table!

Trail was mostly clear of snow for first 2 km but also had lots of post holing. We cut a trail through the steep narrow trail with out snowshoes and it should be noted the last several hundred meters are avalanche terrain and somewhat terrifying to cross. Make sure avy forecast and weather conditions are in your favour before trying this summit.

A group hiked to the Red Mt Cabin and did first 3-4 km without snowshoes it was so hardpacked. They put them on as soon as they left footprints Weather was nice and views were lovely

Packed and icy trial for first 0.75 km, then mostly snow free and dry for remaining 5 km.

The trail was mostly clear with sections having very slippery ice and some snow. Microspikes are definitely recommended. We hiked 10 km (20 km round trip) and conditions we surprisingly clear for February

Snow Conditions were exceptional, the road is plowed all the way to the trailhead (just past the 2 km sign) and there is a pullout on the left to park right where the ribbon is visible at the trailhead. We added ribbons at the first section of trail when the existing ribbons stopped, in order to help others see where the trail goes. At this point the trail has ribbons all the way into the alpine

Trail conditions were absolutely perfect. Crusty snow meant walking mostly on top of the crusty layer. We were able to do an afternoon summit, just before the sun set, get out there while conditions are this great!

Managed to make it to the Zigzag Ridge on a beautiful day with ideal conditions. I wouldn’t say it was easy but it sure wasn’t that tough.
