Alpine lake access?

[Martinhunter]

Just curious if anyone has been up around 3000 to 3500 ft off the beaten path lately? I'm curious how the roads might be, I'm thinking I might head up to one of my favorite lakes this weekend, it sits at 3300 ft and I'm not sure if the snow will be off the roads yet. Its a long drive to get within a mile or 2 and find out its still snowed in.

I like the www.wta.org site, check for recent hike updates.  Who knows, your lake may be posted but if not, it'll give you an idea on snow levels at other elevations.

Snotel will tell you too.
