We were a little nervous seeing the other reports recommending high clearance vehicles. The road absolutely go rough with deep potholes but we were able to make it in a CRV. A slower, more prudent driver might have been able to navigate these conditions without bottoming out, but our driver (Miles) rushed it a bit.
the hike was gorgeous with some wildflowers in bloom and relatively clear views of Helens, Adams, and Hood all long the hike. There was still about 3-4 feet of snow along parts of the trail so boots and possible yak tracks are recommended.
It was a wonderful hike to celebrate the end of an era for our friend.
