High Sierra Topix

Never seen so little snow in the owens valley in winter.Anyway up the sherwin grade mountains with snow appeared.Especially towards mammoth etc.
Anyway, decided on hiking up mcgee creek.It was beautiful.Clear trail,snow covered peaks and cool temps.Better than late spring hiking.A freak winter.The road was clear and i parked at the trailhrad.Ive snowshoed up that road cuz its always been covered from hilton lakes rd.

A freak winter.

Thanks for the TR.
Forecast calls for sunny days with higher than normal temps for this time of year all the way thru next Wed.

Let's hope for snow not too far in the future.

How high up the trail did you get? I've been contemplating heading up to Owen's Valley for some winter dayhikes in the eastern sierra to give some benefit to this horrible winter. Seems like the clear trails only last a few miles though.

I only got to the big log bridge...did it in boots...did blue lake today in boots also but snow was 1-3 ft above 10k...so girgeius...been trying to post pics but they are too big...
