[pct-l] JMT in early June

[jjolson at uwyo.edu (Jeff Olson)]

The snow levels are showing themselves to be pretty low compared to average.
I headed south from Tuolomne Meadows on the JMT on June 7, 1992 and hit
absolutely no snow the whole way.  If you have access to records for that
year, you might get a decent idea of the amount of snow to expect by
comparing to this year.  This info has the caveat that it might still snow a
lot up there...
