I spent a day up in Yosemite in December of 2012. It was a drought year, but a storm had blown through a few days previously leaving a foot or so of snow in the valley. I don't think you can beat Yosemite in these conditions. The valley never looks prettier and there aren't a lot of people. The sound of snowfall down the cliff faces can occasionally be heard, other than that it's exceptionally quiet and peaceful.
We had a lot of rain this last December, but the pictures I'm seeing from Yosemite's webcams show no snow in the valley and only a dusting on top of Half Dome. We need a lot more snow but we've had nothing but sun for the last couple of weeks. Argh.
