Hello all! I am trying to track down conditions for driving out to the Obstruction Point TH out of Hurricane Ridge, and for the trail and snow conditions on the Grand Valley trail up to Grand Pass and area, as well as the Badger Valley trail to make a loop trip. Has anyone ventured out that way recently? Many thanks!!!

I was out there in mid-June skiiing, still a ton of snow. It's likely very different now, but still snowy. The ONP website is your best bet: https://www.nps.gov/olym/planyourvisit/current-road-conditions.htm https://www.nps.gov/olym/planyourvisit/wilderness-trail-conditions.htm

Thanks! They just have some inconsistencies between their online road status and their recorded road status. Ah well!

Oh, if you haven't been out that way before: there is usually a steep snow patch on the Grand Ridge trail a few hundred yards from the Obstruction Point trailhead that lingers into late summer. If you are going in via Lillian Ridge, you might want to scope that out before you commit to the loop, especially if you aren't carrying an axe.
