Then we wouldn't get summer without Jobs' approval?

It snowed on me a little bit when I was standing at Glacier Point back on May 27, 2008. I also remember reading forecasts leading up to my visit, and it was near, possibly above, 100 degrees in the valley the week before.

We were snowed on during June of 2009 on our way to Watkins (this was the same year that there were several Half Dome incidents due to late season weather)



The body betrays and the weather conspires, hopefully, not on the same day.
