Roman went hiking April 29, 2011 10.5 miles 3,750 feet gained
On the way to Nesmith Point, it started fairly warm near the trailhead but became quite wintry higher up. Fresh snow (it probably fell in the last 2 days) started above 2400', it varied from none under big trees to 4-6 inches in the open. It will melt pretty quickly though. I mostly missed rain, except that it was "raining" and "snowing" from the trees. Somewhere around 3400' old snow pack became too soft to hold me; I put on snowshoes and it was smooth sailing. Up on the summit it was snowing, windy and COLD - I didn't even look for a summit sign, just snapped a few photos and headed down. It was a good hike and me with Pepper had the trail completely to ourselves.
