Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

have not turned my sights on 108 yet, let me know how it is when you get back. I know it is a bit early for all my creek camp spots to open up after the feet they received up there.

 

good weekend to go then, since the storm window opens up again next week.

 

Snow line is supposed to be high too. Skiing in the rain is no fun...

 

No snow in twain harte. Snow is pretty high up. Lyons reservoir has no snow or pretty splotchy. Snow line is pretty close to pinecrest

 

nice, time to clean the truck and get out of the deserts...

 

Thanks guys and gal. That's what I thought, I wish we could stay closer to the snow line, but this was a last minute trip and cabins are pricey by the lake right now. We'll see how much snow/rain we get this week.

 

wednesday storm the snow level drops back to 5k and end of week potentially opens another river. will see how it falls out for the mid to lower sierras though.

 

You can take the truck out of the desert, but you can't take the desert out of the truck.

 

This was Twain harte mar. 5th. You can see there is no snow under my truck. All of it was gone by the 7th.

This was up by beardsley Mar 4th. You can sort of see the depth in footprints

Edit: I'm terrible about taking any pictures. Let alone good ones

 

I like the dog!

 

I just keep driving it through different conditions and nature finds a way to replace the playa with dirt. if you try to fight it, you will lose

 

Dont hate. I will out drink you any day son

@sidetracked

 

I already lost.

 

I missed that storm. I was out of town camping in Petaluma. Apparently Dodge was pretty fun.

Where were you sledding near Beardsley?

I'd like to take my kids sledding again but I'm coming up blank on areas that aren't a cluster f.

Did you hike out past the gate?

 

Thank you! That's my niece (sisters dog). She's a big dog at heart. Had her on my jet ski,boat and my passenger 4 wheelin. Tried to convince my sister to let me take her for a ride on the dirt bike. She wasn't having it

 

I can get the M8000s and ARB compressors. don't have it in stock, but its 1 day out. shoot me a PM if you want some prices.

thanks!

 

The cluster fuck is real up there. Tis why I wont give specific spots without meeting you first. Sorry yo

 

What about Strawberry? Found a place right by the resort and might be good for snow. Hmmm


Sorry this is all foreign to me, we had a cabin in Cold Springs for the last 12 years and unfortunately had to sell it this year when my stepdad passed from cancer. Never had to think twice about where to stay before, so I'm clueless.

 

I would get at least a 10000 winch. Lots of people get 8's, we are almost 8k. you should try to double incase you are pulling yourself out and possibly someone else tied to you (we had to do this last weekend). I want a 12k so I can pull full size 3500's and two rigs tied together.

 

also double so you can pull yourself up a hill with resistance, you will be putting a lot of extra stress on that 8k.
