Looks like Sierra at Tahoe got 14" of snow over the last weekend. Does anyone know what Lover's leap currently looks like? Hogsback, east wall, etc covered in snow? Too dangerous to climb?

Drove through there yesterday and there is definitely snow on the East Wall. Didn't look at Hogsback.

How 'bout P Spires?

Saturday when I drove up it looked like Phantom Spires was the start of where the snow stuck. I don't remember seeing any snow from the road on my way back through Sunday.

Thanks for the update. I'm hoping to take up some beginners for a day trip from the bay. Looks like we're day-tripping yosemite.

I just posted a conditions update for the leap on the tahoe area climb threads.

Lovers Leap is at the Twin Bridges road cam. Looks like just about all the snow has melted
