UPDATE JULY 6th: I just talked with the Forest Service in Duchesne. They have a team that will drive as far as they can up Hades Canyon, and then hike to Hades Pass and the Grandaddies and have a report by tomorrow on accessibility. They recommended that I hold off leaving until I get that report tomorrow (Thursday). I also heard a recorded report on accessibility to Trailheads and key areas of the High Uintas. Basically it reports spotty snow between 9,000 and 10,000 ft. Over 10,000 feet, inaccessible still. Trails leading to the high country are reported as being very muddy, and most streams too high to attempt fording.
You can call:
Duchesne Ranger Station – 435-738-2482
Roosevelt Ranger District – 435-722-5018
Kamas Ranger District – 435-783-4338
I was loading the car to leave today, but will hold off until tomorrow and report what I learn before leaving. HAPPY BACKPACKING!
