According to last week’s report from Deschutes National Forest trail crew supervisor Joe Welke, deep snow persists in the high country but, as the snowline recedes, access is slowly expanding. Most trails above 5,000 feet have at least some snow. Welke said forest visitors should expect a late melt out. Broken Top Trailhead had 7-8 feet of snow above 6,500 feet as of May 23, Welke reported. For anyone looking for a June ski or snowshoe, Dutchman Sno-park still has adequate snow for winter recreation. Temporary signs have been removed, so visitor s are responsible for their own navigation.
