I take that back it should be open I heard from a friend that other high mountain lakes are open so I would guess those should be too, its in the same general area of the ones your going too.

Lake Cathrine is something you should be wary of right now avalanche wise. I was up at Alta today and there were a few wet sluffs triggered in the afternoon and evidence of some larger sluffs with ocassional rockfall.

A good rule of thumb is if you sink past your ankle in the snowpack you are in danger. Aspect, elevation, time of day, duration of a nightly re-freeze, temp, weather, etc. all play a big part in Spring Conditions.

It will be safe at Lake Mary though.

thanks for the heads up tyedye... being from the midwest I forget about avalanche concerns. Lake Mary it is then. Any idea if the brooks are hitting?
