Attempt at Newberry Crater Road

We tried going up Newberry Crater Road (NF-21) to go over the crater’s rim and onward toward China Hat but the snow started getting deeper as we went uphill so we decided to turn around since we were alone and I don’t have a Pul Pal or similar recovery gear yet.

You wouldn’t think there would be so much snow in mid June but up toward the top (we didn’t get photos up there), we were pushing through a couple feet of snow.
