    I can't do the 14th/Saturday cause I have to watch my daughter, but I can probably do Sunday. Wouldn't mind getting in one last snow trip before the season is up.

    From what I hear, only the higher elevations are getting more snow this week since it's a warmer system. So probably just Big Bear that'll have any considerable amount

    There may be snow left from thursday friday, but its gonna be in the 40’s up there this weekend and its supposed to just snow/rain thurs n fri. I got all excited too, but looks like snow runs is not gonna happen for me this winter. Unless I bail on tuesday up to big bear, pretty unlikely

    unfortunately I can’t do Sunday so I gotta stick with Saturday. Anyone else up for Big Bear on Saturday? Probably just gonna do Gold Mountain or something just to get out and have a little fun.

    Not a problem at all! Family is way more important. It’s important to help the wifey by giving her a break!

    There will be more opportunities for sure brother!

    My other buddy with a less capable truck is coming and he’ll be fine. You won’t have any issues. And if you do, we’ll get you through haha

    I'll be up there as well, definitely would love to hit the trail.

    Side note, I think I either have a U-joint going out or the needle bearing being stupid. Weird hum/vibes going on. Checked wheel bearings for play and they seemed okay.

    I work friday night to 2am, but I don't wanna push you too late.

    Also, anyone have the ECGS bushing tool they could lend me? I'm thinking needle bearing is the culprit, I'm gonna test it tonight after work
