Went up to Frogcreek just before Beehive on Tuesday March 1st and there was hardly a trace of snow up until about 6500 when you break over the ridge up to that little unamed pond just before Frog creek just under 1.5 Miles from bee hive. At that point the trail was fully covered in snow but walked on for sure. Not sure how much was up there. I walked off trail past the pond down to Frog creek and didn't have much problem walking on top the snow(though I only had on a day pack). Snow on the trail definitely had been packed down a bit along that section as well.
Taken from the Trail looking right about where that unnamed pond should be.
Frog Creek a little over a mile from Bee Hive
Frog creek is as far as I ventured out to so I don't know exactly what Bee Hive looks like but I'm sure its pretty similar. Got a pretty good storm up here right now over the last few days that I am sure is adding a fresh bit of snow to the upper parts. Hasn't been to cold of a snow, nothing in Yosemite valley has stuck below about 7,000 so far.
I am actually looking to go out there that same weekend as you are but I have no snow shoes and am not super well prepared for Hiking through snow so I'm not sure where I'm gonna go to yet.
Anyway Hope that helps you figure out what you need to make it a good trip. Honestly If you have snow shoes or something to help with that part I think it would be a very nice trip. Temps out there lately have been very nice during the day and the nights not to cold either.
