Anybody been up in the collegiates and seen the snow at treeline area? I've seen the nice live camera of Princeton and it looks not TOO snow covered above treeline but I'd like to avoid waist deep snow in the trees. any info? Thanks!

There a recent conditions update of Quail Mountain which is just a bit north of the Collegiates. That might give you a decent idea.

Thank you. looks like Yale last May when I was swimming through hip deep snow for an hour. :) I guess its just memorial day debauchery for me and the lady!
