Quick trip to the Sierra to check out the snow situation at Round Top. I should have brought my skis along, because there was more than plenty of the white stuff.

Walked from Carson Pass to Winnemucca Lake to the saddle between The Sisters and Round Top and then via west ridge (snow free) to the top. Back the same way. (For route description see my previous reports for

Round Top).

Took my snow shoes along, but didn't need them at all for my way up, because the snow was hard/frozen probably due to some recent rain in the area. Only needed them in the afternoon for the last mile because the snow got somewhat soft.
