- NOTE: Snowstorms become more likely in october on the Eastern Sierra, in the Yosemite high country and throughout Kings Canyon. Temperatures drop rapidly, especially at night. And days get shorter. Thus my hiking season (for "epic" day hikes at high elevation) usually ends in september (See A suggested calendar).
