Hi All,

To what extent do you think an ice axe will be necessary in the Sierra’s (Red’s Meadow to Kennedy Meadows) in early October? Cheers,

Depends. So far, no snow. But one big storm could change everything. A few years ago there were nasty October storms. Not so last year or so far this year.

I’m in Ridgecrest, near Kennedy Meadows.
