Is Tripoli Road to Mt Osceola trailhead open May 1, 2022?

No other details known right now. My friend hiked Falling Waters to Lafayette and saw ?20 people hiking up to carry her out on stretcher.

Does anyone know if road to trailhead for Osceola is still open at this time of year?

Friend & I hiked the Edmands Path & Eisenhower Loop to summit of Eisenhower. Trail is well marked. Its mostly dry with some slippery rocks. Beautiful, warm, mostly sunny day. Wonderful views.

I am an older woman looking for people to hike with mostly the 48's.

Overcast, cold day, quite windy in spots. Well maintained trail,easily followed. The trail was covered initially with leaves, then hardened ground. Dusting of snow on trail, which became an inch of snow closer to summit. No traction needed. Brook crossings easily crossed. Ran into a very cute...

Wilderness Trail has thin layer of snow & ice on parts of it. After about a mile or so the Osseo Trail is covered with softened snow, then hard snow, and a little icy. I brought snowshoes, microspikes, and Hillhounds.I barebooted most of the ascent. I put on microspikes for steepest section of...

Beautiful, sunny day for a hike. Very steep trail with wooden steps and handrails, along the cascades. On the ascent the trail was mostly dry. On the descent the rocks and wooden steps were wet and slippery. Poles were helpful. Saw few people along Beaver Brook Trail but lots of people at...

Overcast all day, no views from the summit. Trail is rocky, mostly dry, and easily followed. Trail signs almost at the top are confusing if you've never done this hike before. There is no clear sign for the summit. Beautiful day to hike in the woods. I lay down in a pile of leaves and a...

North Kinsman via Lonesome Lake Trail, Fishin Jimmy, & Kinsman Ridge Trail 7/27/13 Beautiful day for a hike. Most of the trails were dry, except for a few a wet spots on Lonesome Lake, around the lake, & Fishin Jimmy. Trails are pretty well marked. Hiking Fishin Jimmy, with its steps...

Perfect weather for a hike. Trail is easily followed and well maintained. It looked like someone cleared a tree from the path on the way to Gem Pool. The trail is mostly dry with a few muddy areas that can be avoided. The water crossings are fine, with some minor rock hopping. Amazing views...

Got a late start and started hiking after 2pm. Light rain turned into a steady downpour. Learned that REI rainjacket was no longer waterproof! Trail in good condition on the ascent. Loved walking through the woods, scrambling up the rocks, and arriving at the summit. Some views. Raingear...

The first 2 miles of Edmands were dry. Then the trail alternated between soft snow and some ice with dry stretches. Still a lot of snow on the sides but melting. No traction needed ascending-could walk on the side of the snow. I tried using microspikes on the descent but took them off and on 3...

The first half mile is dry. After that there are patches of snow. After 1.4 miles there is still lots of snow. People are hiking on a monorail and beside it. Still a few feet of snow. On the way down, snow softened with an increase in post holing. Light traction is helpful, particularly on the...

Trail is well packed down until a little past the ladder. I put on snowshoes when trail became choppy. Beautiful, sunny day to hike. I went up the tower at the summit, and it was very windy. Saw suprisingly few people today.

Most of the trail is well packed down, except for a few areas that are broken up by hikers barebooting. I used snowshoes throughout the hike which worked well. Beautiful hike with the snow lightly falling.

We bushwacked on the way up and did the 3 water crossings on the way back. The second river crossing was a little dicey. Some of the rocks were submerged and others were coated with a thin layer of ice. I put on microspikes to cross, took a long leap, reached the rock, and then fell into the...

This was the first time I'd hiked Gale River since the trail was rerouted. I miss the old trail with its wonderful views of the brook. The trail is covered with leaves the first mile or so. After that it becomes very muddy for at least a mile & a half. It's helpful to have hiking poles to get...

Trail in good shape (thanks Fisher Cat) and easily followed. Ran into a couple of hikers who were returning a lost lab to her owner. Heard later that one of the men fell down one of the ladders while carrying the dog down. Dog reported to be okay. Hope the guy is okay. Gorgeous day to hike...

Trail is dry for the most part. Descending Stony Brook there are rocks wtih slippery moss that we carefully stepped over. Only equipment needed is sunscreen and a hat for protection from the hot sun. Gorgeous day, although hot and humid. This is a wonderful hike, with varied terrain...
