Tiger, there was a huge late November windstorm in 2011 -- that was probably the killer. 140 mph sustained winds on top of Mammoth Mtn!! Throughout the Eastern Sierra, from roughly Tioga Pass through Big Pine, we have seen enormous thickets of fairly recent blowdowns. The Forest Service is trying to clear the dead trees from the trails and roads, but it is a very big project.
And by the way, we had to cancel our trip -- too much snow already, with more storms on the way. Even though I want to go camping, it is a pleasure to have some snow and rain, after so many dry and hot years.
