Yesterday's ice storm that shifted into a day of rain added to the watershed that was already full enough to have the Cascades running. The result was a noisy night of the Cascades roaring, and they are still roaring away this morning!
Conditions at the Cascading Waters Trailhead at 7 a.m.:
Temperature is 36.1 degrees F and steady;
Humidity is 90.1% and steady;
Pressure is 29.38" and steady;
There is an occasional wind stirring but we had no reading for mph;
The sky is overcast;
The Cascades are roaring away;
The Cascades Brook is running full and fast in both channels;
The USFS Fire Danger is LOW.
If you get the opportunity early today to come to the Cascades it is always wonderful to hear and see the crashing water!
Expect very wet and muddy trails, and stay to the central path so as to not eat up the surrounding landscape and expand the trail. Yes, this means getting your boots wet, but it is an important part of soil erosion control if you choose to hike on a wet day.
