I’ve never actually snowshoed to Dewey or Crocker point.  I avoided them in the past due to crowd concerns.  Is it that bad or am I just being silly?    The views seem like it may be worth it.

Any insight would be awesome.   Thanks!

Dewey Point is not that far from the Badger Pass parking lot. So during Presidents Week when a lot of folks are out of school and on vacation, on a sunny day you might be sharing Dewey Point with 9 or 10 folks around lunch time. The views are still worth it.

Between Xmas and New Years during some mild snow showers, I was out there by myself.  Crocker Point is much further, so there are fewer people.  You might also encounter some folks snow camping on the way to Dewey or Crocker.

I have been there in early spring and there have been 50-60 people camping overnight on a holiday weekend.  You can also go out to Glacier Point.  Have fun
