On a similar note, there was a Search & Rescue over the weekend for a troop

what happened other than lots of snow falling in the area. Some were treated

Am planning a trip to CA and will be camping in Yosemite Valley at the end
of April.  I was wondering if anyone had an idea of what I can expect for
weather conditions in Yosemite Valley for the end of April.  Thanks!
Kathy
