Hello,
I am planning a backpacking trip somewhere in the sierras in early July(7th-11th), and was wondering at what elevation I am likely to encounter snow at this time of year. I am considering either thousand island lake, or somewhere in golden trout wilderness. But am open to any other ideas/suggestions. I do a lot of backpacking in the central coast Los Padres/Big Sur area, and am looking for a more majestic experience. I am looking for somewhere with good fishing, good views, and as few people as possible. I have 4-5 days and am a relatively experienced backpacker in decent shape, and am up for a challenging trip if the rewards are worth the effort. Please let me know any ideas you might have.

Thanks,
Toby
