I decided to try an early season backpack. We started at Mammoth ski resort, went over Minaret Summit,
down to the San Joaquin River ( not much water flow)
Up to Shadow Lake (lots of snow on the south side, very little on the north side
and then up to Lake Ediza. (Frozen, lots of snow)
Overall, the snow level was about 8000 feet. Lots of snow at 9000 feet. We saw no people in 4 days.
It was a strange feeling wandering about Shadow Lake and Devils Postpile with no people!
