To answer some of Travis' questions since I figure others will wonder the same:
I plan on having breakfast before arriving, packing in a lunch, some snacks and dinner for day one, breakfast lunch and dinner day two and only breakfast day three.
I'm good with cold breakfast and coffee in the morning Sat/Sunday but to each their own. We'll be looking at a somewhat early start on Saturday (7am give or take) really depending on how the snow feels on the hike in. If you want to get up early and make a full breakfast feel free!
We'll be meeting at 9am at Annette's Mono Village resort...bit of a misnomer there as it's at the western edge of Twin Lakes (just take Twin Lakes Road until you can't go any further and look for a crowd). The resort itself is listed as not open but I'm not sure if they have a gate at the entrance they close or not, we may end up parking on the side of the road and walking in. If we do park in their lot there may be a fee on a per car basis.
I'm heading up Thursday morning to get permits, scope out the trailhead, etc. so look for last minute posts or email Thursday evening.
