Snow Levels August Puppet/Royce/Feather/Bear Lakes/Passes

Post by kliske »

Hi folks

We're planning a North Lake - Humphreys-French Canyon-Royce Lakes-Bear Lakes and back trip this week.
Anyone have intel on the snow levels for the various passes on that trip or around Royce Lakes? Traction needed?

Any particular routes / passes most recommended from Royce to Bear Lakes areas?

Thanks!

Zero snow issues on Feather. I don't think you'll find anything you can't walk around.
