I will head up Hillside, to Hilltop and see how far over I can go. Memorial Weekend it was still not passable at the top of Hilltop, but it has been sunny and nice up here, in fact one of our 3 frozen water mains has opened up finally. I will get some pic's of the entire area and post.
Please don't go up there just for me. Although I will admit you were the only person on this forum that I thought may have actually driven that road recently! The way my weekend is coming together I may end up waiting a week to head up there anyway.

Forecast says around 6" for Saturday. We will most likely have thundersnow conditions, gotta love snow and lightning. I actually did not get home early enough last night, and it was raining with lightning. I will still get up and over Hilltop and see how far Kingston Peak road takes me, and let you know. No worries on "going up just for you", Wesley, you are only another good reason to go, I usually do regular rounds of our entire area anyways.

I thinking of doing the East Ridge of Mount Bancroft tomorrow and was wondering if there's any snow up there. I was hoping to do the entire thing in my approach shoes and I don't know much the ridge and notch melt out in the summer.

Thanks.
