Indeed - it is dumping the white stuff outside as I write this from the office at 2000'. Yosemite is finally getting winter.

Well, as they say on West Wing, don't accept the
premise. There is a major storm system in the Sierra
as I type this. New powder. They can get to Yosemite
Valley by Amtrak train/bus combination from Los
Angeles and other cities. And from there to Badger
Pass. If they do not already cross country ski, they
can get lessons at Badger Pass (and equipment) and ski
out to Glacier Point. (See photograph at
http://electricpath.com/yosemite.html). The views
along the way match any in the world. IMHO. And winter
is the only time one can camp in the Wawona Grove - a
grove of Sequoia at the south entrance to Yosemite.
Snow shoe or cross country ski up hill for four miles
and camp in a most magic place. One afternoon when I
was there, the sun came out and began melting ice off
the sequoia. Diamonds all around. Chickadees swirling
in the sky.
