Jen went backpacking Spider Gap July 23 to July 26, 2023 37 miles 8,500 feet gained 3 nights Spider Gap-Buck Creek Pass 0 Carefully planned Olympus climb foiled by rain! We chose this lovely backpacking loop and did a bit of scrambling too. The Lyman Basin and Buck Creek Pass areas were just spectacular. Team pretty happy with plan B.
