Hey folks.

Hoping to go up to Toulumne Meadows via Tioga Pass this Memorial Day weekend for some spring skiing.

Does anyone know what the conditions are like up there?

I am guessing that most of the snow is melted out making a proper tour impossible, but the high descents are still skiable.

Thanks!

Did a quick ski of Gaylor Pk. this am and there is still plenty of snow up high and all of the usual suspects (Dana, Conness, 12002, White Mtn, North Pk., Mammoth Pk., etc.) have plenty of snow although some of the approaches have areas where it's hard to connect the dots. Conditions on Gaylor were firm snow with 1/4 to 1/2 inch of new snow but I was down by 9:30 am. Weather through the weekend is off and on snow/rain and there is always the possibility the Pass could close like it did the other day.
Have a great weekend.
