Hello all!
We have a permit to leave Cottonwood Lakes mid July and exit the Portal 4 days later. We have done some training hikes in southern California and all though they have been doable it has been difficult for some because of the amount of snow still up there. I am thinking there will still be a lot of snow in the Sierras in mid July as well. We really want this to be enjoyable instead of a push with maybe an extra day.
My question is can I roll my permit over into September instead, since that is about the only time now available? What do you guys think the conditions will be like (weather), possibly colder but much less snow? I am sure there will be some still laying around?
What other options do we have? Thanks so much!
