Deadhorse Creek, Glacier Vista - Panorama Point by Hiking Buddies

Dead horse Creek trail was probably half or more in snow. The usual snow is at the switchback on the Skyline Trail as it traverses across the slope up toward Panorama Point. There were a few tricky slick steps to cross the top of the deep glissade tracks that have been made there. Some big slopes of snow, some of it steep and slick, are on the way up to Panorama Point and continu above the point. Panorama Point itself is totally melted out

We continued on to McClure Rock. A way trail is visible turning off the Skyline Trail and can be followed a bit in the direction of the rock. It's relatively easy travel across the snow or the rocks to the broad top of McClure Rock for fabulous 360 degree views.
