Almost all the snow/ice has melted, but the ground is wet with mud and puddles in the camping area, trails and parking lot.
Bathrooms are a little rough as usual -- bring toilet paper.
Critters were bold enough to approach humans in the camping area.
No wildflowers yet.
Given the pleasant weather, we expected some crowds, but it was still manageable. We arrived at the crags by 8a and had them to ourselves for a while (Feathers on Sat, Sunshine on Sun).
We saw large arrays of birds heading south in the morning and north in the evenings.
