Amazing snowpack has created record snow melt and flooding in the Sierra Nevada... I took this photo on July 8, 2017, with these trees at about 10,000 ft. still surrounded by snow. The scene is about two miles from the Pacific Crest Trail.

People hiking the Pacific Crest Trail were endangered by higher-than-normal streams to cross. Two drowned, one slipped to his death on ice, and one probably died from heat or dehydration.
