7.5 miles of hiking • 1750' elevation gain •
Bailed on Gorge plans due to possible ice and instead went out to Gov't Camp. Had to park at Skibowl due to snow on the road. After procuring sno-park permit, etc, finally on trail at 9am. Up to Mirror Lake and then directly up the N. Face following some ski tracks. Back down to the lake on the normal route, then down to the car passing some 50-75 people! It was snowing in Gresham upon our return...
