Top Spur to Ho Rock - 2021/06/20

We spent fathers day and the longest day of the year doing one of my favorite hikes on Hood. A 3450' climb from Top Spur up to Ho Rock on Cathedral Ridge by way of the McNeil Scramble route. (The regular trial is still 100% snow covered). Lots of winter blowdown for a mile long section beginning after the Bald Mountain cut off junction made it a bit more of a slog than usual!
