The river flooded the trail for about a 1/4 mile. It’s 6AM and our feet could barely take it. SO COLD!Water is loud and raging throughout Yosemite.Bridge is out! Thankfully we found a safe place to ford.We’ve seen 7 balloons since we started in Mexico. Thankfully this one was reachable to pack it out. It’s really sad seeing balloons in the backcountry – especially in the Sierras!Jake testing the current before he helps his anxious wife cross.It’s so easy to lose the trail in the snow. Tough stuff.
We found 33 balloons when we southbounded the PCT in 2014. Best wishes forging ahead!
