Hey, I wanted to know if Yosemite had snow now?

Are certain areas clear and others snowed in?

I would love weather beta if I could! Thanks!

I'm amazed they still have that webcam up. It's an ancient video... The valley and all the walls are covered in loose terrible powdery snow 10 feet deep. Not even worth the effort to head in. Everything is closed. That's right. I said it.

This is right outside Camp 4 this morning.
Completely socked in and freezing ass cold. We're bugging out of here for the weekend.

Snow won't be melted till at least June they say. Record winter. Don't even bother to try climbing. They say tuolumne won't even be climbable this year. Try again next summer.

LOL, you people all suck :p

All the combing around in the northern sierras is pretty much encapsulated in snow right now! I tried getting to the base of some of the climbs and repeatedly fell through about 6' of it at the base!!

And on top of that, we got snow in Tahoe today, so I was totally ready to believe you all, lol. =)

Honestly, it'll be my first time ever out there so I'll just be bringing my shoes, my bike, and my boots and scoping out the place.

Unfortunately the more local areas of the Sierras are still snowed in :p
