3rding what Ken said. He's right on the money.

Ned's trip was relatively easy as he only crossed Forester and it was
the furthest south section of the high Sierra. The farther north you
go the more snow you will find, as well as navigating in a much more
forest environment, which is tough.

I wish we could get some down to earth advice from Ned on the
conditions. He has ton's of experience, but getting him to see things
from the perspective of the average hiker seems difficult at best.
