Red Pine Trail and Lake
I hiked today with my boys (5 and 8). The trail is in good shape to the bridge up top. Some run off on the trail as you go up and a little mud in places.
There is a lot of snow above the bridge and you have to climb large drifts all the way to the lake. The lake itself is covered 80% with ice. The lake is at 9,640'.

I was on White Pine today, same conditions of course. Snow deep and drifted above 9,000 and alot of water on the trail. wildflowers are just getting started around 9,000 ft.
Just below the final switchback to the lake. Too much snow - I turned around here.

Last year in early June, going up to Red Pine I encountered a bunch of snow, after the bridge a ways up. Thanks for the heads up.
