THE FOLLOWING IS THE WEATHER FORECAST FOR THE MT RITTER / BANNER PEAK / ANSEL ADAMS
WILDERNESS AREA AT 10,591 FT
The 10,591 ft level gives you a good idea of the weather conditions at camping spots such as Thousand Island Lake, Garnet Lake, and Ediza
Lake even though the above level is anywhere from approximately 750 to 1,200 feet above the aforementioned landmarks.  (below weather
report is updated at least once per week)

Ansel Adams Wilderness contains some of the most beautiful scenery in the entire
Sierra Nevada Range.  Heavy snow fall during the winter
months often lingers well into the summer months. This adds to the incredible beauty of the area. Mt Ritter and Banner Peaks along with the
Minarets offer the Mountain Climber many challenges.

The area is also an all time favorite destination for hikers, backpackers, and fisherman. For more on the area, please visit the above links.
When I consider your heavens, the work of your
fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have
set in place, what is man that you are mindful of
him, the son of man that you care for him?  You
made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
and crowned him with glory and honor. You made
him ruler over the works of your hands;  you put
everything under his feet: all flocks and herds,
and the beasts of the field, the birds of the air,
and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of
the seas. O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your
name in all the earth!

Psalm 8:3-9
(from New International Version)
