Up on the higher parts around Falls Creek there is up to a meter of hardpack with drifts to 5meters deep
This of course can change overnite depending on temperature and sun

I guess that's the head waters of the Taggerty River?
We are heading for Falls Ck. mid August but staying off mountain.
Hope it keeps dumping like it has.
