Oregon Hikers

What is the chance that snow will be in the Salmon Mountains at the end of June? I realize that is hard to predict as we don't know the weather between now and then.

I am contemplating hiking the PCT in Northern California starting at Gumboot Lake and ending at around Callahans. I wish to do it snow free and most people in Northern California think it should be snow free there by June. I anticipate starting around mid June and ending at Callahans at the end of J...

I am wanting to hike the PCT from Mount Theisen to Elk Lake and then jump up to Timberline Lodge to BOG. How is it looking for those areas to be snow free? By Mid July, maybe? Mosquitos are not so bad in August though, right?

Wow! Ok Something I can look forward to then(Ugh!)

I understand the mosquitoes are horrible Fish Lake and for the next 200 miles going North. Is that pretty accurate? What time of the summer are they the worst?

Where is Yocum ridge?

But I suspect the best thing may be to wait a couple of weeks to wait for some more snow to melt?

So Microspikes might be a good idea for at least the next few weeks.

So I have plans to start in Ashland June 23rd and start heading North on the PCT until Cascade Locks. my plan is to do the whole thing in 3 weeks or so. Is it safe to say that there will still be considerable snow on the trail? I see the temperatures are pretty warm this week.

My plan is to start the Oregon PCT on June 23rd in Ashland, heading north how much snow should I anticipate encountering?
