It's snowing above 2,500' in the Cascades tonight. We have a backpacking trip planed with the boys the second week of July. I checked on the spot last week and it's still under snow after about five miles of trail - not a ton, but it's there. And there will be more snow further up. Not sure what we're going to if we don't get melt. None of the boys sounded very stoked on Sunday when I told them we may have to camp on snow in July.

I may need a bike trip audible in my back pocket.

How's the snow pack/melt in other parts of the West? Is anyone else running into similar issues?
