I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Have a safer backcountry experience by using the HST ReConn Form 2.0, named after Larry Conn, a HST member: http://reconn.org

I concur. We were up there over the weekend and it rained and rained all Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The rain melted much of the snow at lake level. We drove up to Luther Pass and the snow was coming down very thick and heavy. It was your classic "Sierra Cement".
