The Cascades began to break through last night!
There is strong flow, the water is crashing, and we expect more ice to break free today.
Be careful hiking today. The ice is thinning and the snowpack is giving way. We had two folks have trouble in the forest yesterday with the ice or snowpack giving way on them, and while everyone is fine, it would be wise to view your footing with a skeptical eye due to melting.
Ted also reported in from the AT yesterday! tedatgwlt.blogspot.com
