[pct-l] Strider's March 1 Irresponsible First Sierra Entry Da te WAG

[reynolds at iLAN.com (Reynolds, WT)]

Tom's plan is to show up Thursday and leave Friday BEFORE dinner if, and
only IF certain people are there Thursday (you know who you are). I fly 1AM
Saturday morning to Cozumel where it is WARM and BEER is everywhere. The
next time I will show up at the entire ADZPCTKO is its 10th.

Tom

PS: Please disregard Strider's prediction. Everything looks like a very late
snow season. I will not be suprised if we see late April and even June/July
snow.

Well I really am not into the 'Wags' BUT I really hope that Tom will be at
the ADZ.  At my age I am not sure how many more I can come to and this year
is special as I am bringing the Monk who will thru hike and my daughter
Carol who will hike to Warner Springs with us and then we turn the Monk
loose and drive back to Idaho.

Cheers,
Marge (the old gal)

Well, it is March 1.  

Upper Tyndall Creek (upon which I have normally based my predictions on and 
has historical data going back to 1970) at 11,400 feet is currently at 21 
inches.  This puts it smack dab in the middle of the average.  

Crabtree Meadow OTOH is only at 16.3 inches.  This is the lowest on 
historical records except for 1976 and 1991.  

So   .   .    .
