Skyline Conditions Mid March + Personal Websites Update

Folly Peak San Jacinto N. Face
Last storm when tram closed early
A major storm is heading to Southern California where snow levels are expected to drop to at least 3000 ft.
Some hikers are drawn to the challenge of hiking in these conditions.  Lets hope there are no rescues
