Is it worth the hike? Is the terrain/snow good?

If you get up there right after the road opens, Sacajawea and Frazier are both super fun.  I would definitely recommend checking it out if you get the chance.

Dude, last October some friends and I hiked up to Sac and a few of the surrounding couloirs and peaks. The avy conditions were good, because it was still the early season freeze/thaw cycle so there were no bad frost/faceted layers. The terrain is amazing, the hike is not bad depending on your vehicle, and the stoke is of course awesome. If you have a car.

Last year we went up in October, and I think early November. The road was still opened. I think it varies year to year, depending on snow. I could be wrong though.

By the way, unless you have a serious offroad vehicle, dont try to get up there, expecially with snow. It will eat your car...
