Mt. Whitney Portal Store & Hostel Forums General Mt. Whitney Portal Store Message Board Kearsarge Pass conditions?

Is it clear of snow to the summit and then on to Bullfrog Lake? Thanks in advance.

Hey Candace, snow!!!! Well, I was on Kearsarge Pass Memorial Weekend and except for a patch on the top, there is no snow. The trail is, well, sad for this time of the year.

What are your plans?

Thanks, Paul. I hiked from Onion Valley to Charlotte Lake today and you're right... it's almost sad. NO snow except for a trace amount approaching the pass and a tiny section about a mile before.

Boy, these drought conditions the past 2 years worries me. Thanks for the link and the update.

Yep, it is sad. So very dry.

However, mouse was able to find a hidden stash of snow somewhere & hit me with a snowball....

dammit.
