Ruth Creek Trail Towards Hannegan Pass

Peter and I hiked this trail in anticipation of climbing Ruth early this summer. The last mile of the road was blocked by a huge rock fall. The trail was covered in snow and we crossed two avalanche fields before turning back at about the 3 mile point. It was an exhilarating hike and probably one of the most beautiful landscapes I have ever seen.
