You won't see snow anywhere near Clifftop. You will have to climb a really long way up to get snow in this season, if at all it is there.

Ofcourse it is superfast journey, since you already know it, there isn't much else to say

Also if you know private bus services from Manali to Pathankot leaving Manali early in the morning?
