Successful troll by Mitsugi here.
It would appear so.
But was it an unintentional successful troll, as the Mitsugi signature implies?

Will the snow ever stop?! Will we ever hike again?!! No Spring or Summer this year, just snow clear through until December!!
Ah quit your whingin’! Some of us are actually really happy about the recent snow we’ve picked up. If you don’t like it, maybe it’s time to acquire some new snow travel skills? Best thing I ever did.
Sorta defeats the purpose I guess. In theory could have had less fires but! Instead, just harder 14er hikes.

Just my opinion, but I think a lot of the 14er hikes and climbs are actually better and even easier with snow- in the spring. Personally, I'd rather be on a snow field or gully than talus and scree. If it's not your thing, the time will come this year where you will see many tennis shoes on 14er summits, just patience is needed.

We're never gonna hike again
Snowy feet have got no rhythm
If you hike in these conditions
you have to be a fool
I should've known better than to plan that trip
And waste that weekend I've been given
So I'm never gonna hike again
The way I hiked with you....whoa
(thank you George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley ...great mountaineering name..... for the inspiration).

I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I don't think we will ever hike again

I'll play:
When the day is done
Hope so much your race will be all run
Then you find you jumped the gun
Have to go back where you began
When the day is done
