    SoCal.
    Went up to Wrightwood this past weekend; too many cars and traffic. Ended up at the top of Angeles Crest - there was snow but nothing too expceptional.

    After last night, I think you might have better luck that I. Have fun! :)

    What time were you thinking of going? Im pretty sure there is more snow in Mt. Laguna than in julian. It was snowing lastnight where the 8east meets Sunrise Hwy. so im pretty sure there is plenty up there. Its fricken cold up here right now. Just remember, if there is snow, then there is ice and they wont let you up the hill without having chains with you! :cool: Let me know what time you were thinking of going and i might head up there with you!:D

    The snow is there (Laguna) which is cool if ya like to play in it, but so is the ice , depending how hard it is road may be residents only regardless of chains


    I've never had to use 4wd going up or down sunrise before the other day when I saw Matt up there, used it in a few spots going up & down

    I grew up in Maine, so I'm not too worried about a bit of ice

    I just want some fun
