Did that come through? If not, in a nutshell, using the median amounts, there should be 3 feet of snow on the ground by Tuesday! Bad news for disorganized folk like me-- Hwy 120 through Yossemite is very likely closed till next...??? April? I for one, didn't get my act together, and never made a drive up to Tuolumne to stash a few buckets of food by the Ski Hut. [Insert Bad language here........................]
I am hoping to have a good run at the winter season, to add to the fine summer of backpacking and traveling I've done so far, but I won't have the usual, easy ski in to Tuolumne with just a couple days food, and a wealth of food and drink waiting for me in the food storage container by the Hut.
But isn't it exciting to imagine all the snow falling up there?! Good luck out there.
errata: It's even more: ~44" by Monday night! So, more than 3.5 feet of new snow by Monday night.
