WooHoooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally getting some snow..
Let's do this!
What day?
What time?
Who cares,
I'll be there.


Wait, It has not even started to snow yet... Let me go back to sleep and hopefully it will be tomorrow.
If I hit it just right, I might make it.

Snacktime

Looks like its raining not snowing lows are 35-39 degrees... We have anyone who actually can confirm snow?

Nice! U guys make it to the top at all? How did ur runner do?

i went alone this time. friends flaked. runner did great. no lockers yet and didnt need to use any recover gear. did almost the entire road to the trail head in 2wd at 15 psi lol
saw only one FJ cruiser and there was already 6 jeeps that i saw coming back down. i didnt make it to the top. got to a spot i didnt wanna try alone and i sure i could have made it but i was running low on fuel and all the other wheelies was otw down. sucks wheeling alone and forgot to top off before i left my house...
did air down to like 12psi when i couldnt get up a certain part.  the jeeps iced up a few areas i had some trouble on and guess they did too from what one of the jeep guys told me.
i stopped here with less than a 1/4 tank and a trusty v6


camera died cuz i left it recording in video mode. only a few pix.. sorry mainly at the spot i ran into the FJ and decided to take a lunch break





got a few more on the phone but ill have see how they turned out before i post them. will be going up again next weekend

Goldrush

Cool. I'll be up there next weekend if everything goes right! Post more pics when u can! Haha
