My Dad and I went up to our cabin at lake alpine the other day (5/29/10) to check on it, and then to ride our ATV's in Arnold. The weather was perfect, and we had a blast.
There was less snow than I expected,especially after such a wet season. Heres some pics. Enjoy!

The cabin:
(^^^ Note the boarded up door... was broken into by a bear. Ripped the door frame out of the wall and ate all of our food :bawl

Entrance to Slick Rock/ Lake Alpine Campground:
Road to Slick Rock:
Some Jeeps getting stuck on the road to Slick Rock:
Entrance to Cabbage Patch:
^^ That Tahoe got about 5-10ft into the snow and then gave up.
We did some snow riding with the quads at Cabbage Patch, but gave up after getting stuck about 20 times. 2 Jeeps and a Toyota followed us there and didn't seem to have a problem in the snow.
Black Springs was covered in snow as well.. Just a bit less than Cabbage Patch.
Big Trees had pretty much no snow, and we rode all day in perfect weather in Arnold.
