6.5 miles of hiking • 1500' elevation gain •
Couldn't miss a rare weather anomaly today, but had only 1/2 day before work. Hiked to Angels Rest and then about 1 more mile to a campsite near Foxglove Creek. It was sunny 63F and finally felt like spring. Trees finally turning green. Couldn't find Quadrillium Chris was writing about, but there was so many trilliums that it was hard to spot one. It was crowded like in a city park today - I had to park on the shoulder because it was no place left on the parking, and when I returned the cars lined the shoulder for maybe 1/4 mile. No snow to speak of at this elevation, just couple of spots near Foxglove Camp.
BTW if you plan to use Palmer Mill Rd it is closed by slides (as the sign says) and blocked above upper Angels Rest parking.
