    Yes definitely gets snow sometimes and wouldn't be unusual to have snow now, but this year its dry out there at this time.

    With the season we've been having so far, guessing I'll be in the clear up there.

    I am IN on Niagara Rim... been waiting for the roads to open. I want to hit it as early as possible for a shake down run.

    Niagara Rim is just beyond the end of pavement. Isn't there a gate just past the Niagara Rim trail head on Eagle Meadows road?

    Maybe they will open Niagara Rim before they open the road back to Eagle Meadows and Long Valley... I know, I know, it's wishfull thinking.

    Maybe. I know they wait until the creek crossings are doable before opening.

    I’ve also never seen the second gate closed. They probably open them together :notsure:

    Im definitely hoping for it to open sooner than later.

    I think you're right... I've never seen that gate closed either.

    Quit it man! You're crushing my hopes and dreams!

    Pinecrest is lower elevation, I think, so perhaps little effect there.

    Pinecrest is about 6000'. I think Murphys is like Sonora ~2000'.

    :fingerscrossed: I'm hoping Dodge gets a dump so I can ski a few more days and break even on my season pass...

    The turn off for Eagle meadows isn't that high maybe 6500' or so but it climbs quite a bit by the time you get towards the back; probably 8-9000'. Unfortunetly they close the gate right off 108 until those upper sections melt out. There are a bunch of cabins back there so I don't think the FS waits too long.

    Going to Kirkwood, or Squaw, for the same reason, though I believe I'm already even. Just need to take advantage of the remaining snow days, as there have been few for me. I believe that forecast was for 6000 feet.
