I was there last weekend. First water crossing was about 3’-4’ moving quickly. Second water crossing was low.
M3 to upper Nei was open and passable. Here is the camp spot at the top on Upper Nei.

I added the route. I think we should be good as far as snow goes, though we might hit some. depending on how much will fall between now and then. If there's less snow when we get there, than I think we can go higher.

Also a reminder to get this for the year.

Yes. It was wide and flowing fast. It didn’t go over the hood though

We might have to cancel. Looks like they've closed that whole area because of the rains, and looking at the forecast I don't see any real period of no rain this week.

Looking at some alternatives. Maybe Knoxville.

I've got to bow out of this one. Combo family/weather/lack of snorkel

 

[Speric]

We’re good. The roads and trails aren’t closed. Original plan.

Bummer. There will be more trips this year.

Also bring a chainsaw if you have one. Good chance of fallen branches and trees with all the rain we’ve had.
