thanks for the update. 10k is like at young lake - so i dont think the approach will be too bad. a little snow on the wall isnt a big deal right? hopefully the weather coming is warm weather...

We encountered snow on the ground at 9,000 feet in Northern Yosemite on Memorial Day. The drought did not prevent May precipitation. Better to wait unless you want to exhaust yourself stomping footholds in the snow.

I didnt! My car's check engine light went on and i ended up playing in Tahoe (cause i bummed a ride:))
Car is all better now... and im headed out there on wednesday. My elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is still quite troublesome. I guess I will only be able to climb OW's!!! That's pretty much a lot of SW of conness, haha

North Ridge is in good shape now! We just went up there on 6/13.
There was a spine of snow along the North ridge, but it's easy to avoid it and stay on rock. The approach has a few patches of snow, but nothing note worthy.
However, the decent has quite a bit of snow at the upper gully. It's not super deep, so punching into gaps in the talus is pretty common when the snow warms up. We got a little wet in approach shoes, but didn't need any tools or anything.
Head up there! it's gorgeous now

We went in through Lembert dome (long way) and camped by young lakes. My friends tried to do the car-to-car way and trend around because there was snow.
