06/03/25 - Hurricane Ridge to Hurricane Hill - Part 1

We drove up to Hurricane Ridge and found Hurricane Hill Road closed but with almost all of the snow melted. We boot on our boots, just in case, and headed down the road on foot. There were glacier lilies and avalanche lilies waiting for us. We made it to the overlook at the sharp turn in the road then down past the upper end of the Wolf Creek Trail. Then up towards the picnic areas and finally the Hurricane Hill trailhead. It looked like we could make our way all the way to Hurricane Hill, though when the going got tough, that is where that steep climb starts, we stopped, rested and made our way back.

We took so many pictures, so this post is in two parts.
