Illilouette Creek Crossing

Postby robow8 » Tue Jan 31, 2017 7:57 am

I have a GP>Illilouette permit for July 3. It looks like we'll have to cross Illilouette Creek just after the trail meets the Mono Meadow trail. Is there a bridge there, or will we have to ford the creek? Any alternate crossings? Thanks!

No bridge. It's a wade. Early in the season in a high snow year, it can be challenging.

Or just read a good mystery novel set in the Sierra; https://www.amazon.com/Danger-Falling-Rocks-Paul-Wagner/dp/0984884963
