Fanton to Squaw Mountain

Landing/Road on Fanton trail - trail heads down road for a bit and then heads off to the left. View looking south from first landing on Fanton trail Fanton trail crossing 4614-167 spur road - someone has been doing a lot of shooting on this road Boat dumped on 4614-167 spur that crosses Fanton trail Car body dumped on 4614-167 spur that crosses Fanton trail Looking down the 4614-167 spur from 4614- you can see the boat on the right Looking at all the trash on the 4614-167 spur road that crosses the Fanton trail This is where people have been shooting - on the 4614-167 spur road - the Fanton trail corsses about 50 feet behind that dirt berm. Looking at all the garbage from near where the Fanton trail crosses the 4614-167 spur road First bits on snow on the Fanton trail Cool little rock formation next to the trail - Fanton trail 4614 road at the "corner" where 4614 takes a turn to the north - looking west 4614 road at the "corner" where 4614 takes a turn to the north - looking north Landing at the "corner" where 4614 takes a turn to the north Cool cascade on un-named creek that crosses the spur road at the landing - Fanton trail Cool cascade on un-named creek that crosses the spur road at the landing - Fanton trail Snow started getting deeper as we left the landing - Fanton Trail Hard to see but someone had come up the trail recently.  I'm guessing it was last weekend. Fanton trail - beautiful forest Old Baldy trail approaching junction with trail to Squaw Mountain - snow was getting much deeper in spots Old Baldy trail junction east - continuous snow Snow on the trail up to Squaw Mountain was REALLY deep in spots - this was probably 8 feet deep It looks like there was a little bit of fresh snow on the old tracks - I think the little bit of rain we had this weekend fell as snow up here. Crossing the sidehill before hitting the road up to Squaw Mountain was rough Finally on the road up to Squaw Mountain - snow was probably 3-4 feet deep Looking back down the 4610-180 spur that heads up to Squaw Mountain Radio Repaeater on Squaw Mountain - you can see how deep the snow is - more than 4 feet I'm sure. South end of Squaw Mountain Mt Hood from Squaw Mountain View from our lunch spot - the old lookout location had at least 3 feet of snow on it still I noticed this pile of broken/melted glass - I'm sure those are remnants of the lookout Looking to the southeast from the top of Squaw Mountain Looking at old lookout location from the south end of Squaw Mountain You can kind of see how much snow was up on top of Squaw Mountain This was on a tree at the junction of Old Baldy and Fanton - I couldn't tell if the sign had been absorbed by the tree or what but it looked interesting. Sign at junction of old Baldy and Fanton trails This was on the spur road out to the landing at the corner - that looks like a fresh kitty print I think
