Gonna try and find a little snow tomorrow, FS Rd 75 out of Greenwater. Meet at Enumclaw Safeway to depart at 9am. Anybody welcome, if we get snow and you're in a stock rig you'll likely want to turn around and head back down. No clue what current conditions are.

Orange 4dr JK. Was two other 4drs and one 2dr JK. ONLY other rig we saw was a Toyota Tacoma chained up coming down. We hit the trailhead about 9:30 and was outta there by like 2 I think.

I'd be curious to make another run up there in a couple weeks. I'd like to try to get to Lonesome Lake. You'd need your TJ for that though I bet. :thumbsup:

It's another couple miles and probably another 500 ft higher elevation then where you got to on Sunday.

A day or two of fresh snow and I'd love to go back up there, in the TJ for sure.

We all drove. Likely lots of parking though on the side streets and stuff.

OK Thanks, we're looking to make an attempt here in a couple of weeks our selves. How far up did you get?

All the way to the top. I wanna go again as well once it gets another hit of snow.

So you got to the lake then?

Well, apparently I didn't make it to the top. I know of no lake. lol I thought it was a loop where FS75 went up 8 miles to Holler Pass and then back down to FS74. We went the 8 miles in to top of pass.

Yeah Lonesome lake is our destination, you might have been there & maybe didn't see it due to the snow? Suppose to get some fresh snow here soon

You got to 4700ft? How deep was the snow? Were you breaking trail?

I had never been, so forgive my ignorance here. :roflmao:

Apparently we made the top of Holler Pass, which is approx. 8 miles in, but NOT to the lake. I thought the road from where we were just dropped back down to 74 but apparently winds back in there a bunch more towards the lake. I'd love to get back up there, but I'd take the TJ.
