Hi All! Long-time reader, first-time poster.
My fiance and I are planning a trip to the Wallace Lake basin in August and are planning to enter and exit via Shepherd Pass. I know that the trail was badly washed out in 2013, but I'm having trouble finding information about its current state (the NPS site simply says that it has flood damage but is passable). I'm also a little concerned about how the recent bad weather may have affected the trail.
Any info you have is much appreciated! We're both experienced backpackers, but many of the forum posts etc that I've read from 2013 said that the washed out sections are dicey with a heavy pack, which we will both have as we're planning to be out a full week. Just trying to figure out what we're getting ourselves into. If it's really bad we could always adjust our plans and do a longer hike in from Cottonwood Lakes.
