Yesterday, 11/06/21, I attempted Grizzly peak. The trail rising above the CT was extremely faint and with the snow fields present I lost it a few times. Was this trail always so difficult to follow? Unfortunately, the snow was thick at the couloir so I didn't attempt the summit. To be honest, I am not sure I was even on the trail or just following some game tracks. I am not really sure why I am posting this information but maybe you can share with me some helpful hints(if you remember) to guide me in the correct direction the next time I make an attempt. Thanks, Mark

Grizzly has a compressed season as you discovered. The social trail between the CT and Grizzly Meadows is distinct. It leaves the CT at 0.7 mile. As an unmaintained trail it will be quickly obscured by snow. Good luck next summer. Debra

I did this hike July 16, 2022. Thanks for the guide Debra!
