These pictures were taken by my I phone sunday 6-28, sorry about the quality. I left seattle at 6pm saturday, road on my bike up to sulphur campground by 10. Climbed the trail, and bivy'd on the summit at 2 am. Woke up to white out fog. I didnt dare travel by myself in the fog. I went back to sleep and woke up to these wonderful views.

The trail is in OK condition, rarely used and getting a bit hard to follow. Snow free except the last 500ft. You should have an ice axe if you go. I was hoping to get a picture of lower bath for a friend but I thought better of it. I was alone and dont have tons of snow travel experience. So I turned back and called it a day. up.gif

I have been thinking about Sulphur and it's highest point since I was there in April of '99. We got off trail on the way down. Luckily it is pretty mature forest.

Josh, it was great hearing about your trip to Sulphur Mtn. and having you join us at dinner in Arlington. While standing atop Green Mtn and looking toward Sulphur, we were wondering about the condition of the trail. Thanks, Q
