US West Mormon Emigrant Trail Snow Day *if there’s snow!

[r2fasani]

Post some great pics everyone! Unfortunately I won't be able to meet you up there. When church has a marriage/parenting conference that Saturday and free babysitting just happens to be available, I gotta go with that priority. So bummed to miss my first run of this year, but I'll catch you all the next time! Have fun.

I will join you in Pollock Pines directly, can't wait!

See you all in Pollock Pines! Coming from SF as well.

Meeting at Santa Rita Mickey D's.
What route are we taking to Pollock Pines?

 

[Sputnik]

I’m thinking I’ll meet ya’ll in Pleasanton. It won’t be much further to take 5 up to 50 than to take 80 to 50 and I’ll save $6 bridge fare :)

Day trip up to the MET. This is a snow trip so snow is required. :)
Come prepared with traction boards, recovery ropes, winch if you have one. And bring a lunch!

View Rally Point

HOLY SMOKES! LOL.

Hey guys. My name is Tony and I’m going to head the drive up the MET since Dave got called in for rocket surgery.

I will meet you guys in the Safeway parking lot in Pollock Pines. I’ll be there around 9am and will be in a white Tacoma all overlandered out. Lol. I’ll be monitoring 146.460 and I hope to see you all up there!

Looks like it’ll be snowing all week so be prepared to have a great time or a miserable time and everything in between. Lol.

4x4 is required, and good all terrain/snow rated tires will work the best up there. See you guys then!

Hi Tony, thanks for leading.
We have fairly new set of all terrains but still might need recovery :)
Hope it’ll be a great time.

See you all tomorrow!

 

[WilC]

Sorry, last minute have to bail. Hopefully someone can take my spot.

Hello everyone. Hope all is well and hope you’re all ready for tomorrow! I’ll see you all at 9am in Polock Pines.

I’ll lead you guys to the trail, but I want you guys to have fun along the way. I want you to get stuck and I want you to learn how to recover from and drive through the snow. It’ll be a fun day with or without recoveries.

It’s snowed the last couple days so it’ll probably be packed already and then we’re gonna be there so be patient as people slip and slide all the time and hold the line up. It’ll still be a good time!

So you all in the morning. Be sure to wear layers. It’ll still be cold up there.

 

[BettyWhiteOneSeven]

This is what I’ll be driving. I’ll be in the SW corner to try and not clog the parking lot too closely to the store entrance.

See you guys at Safeway in the morning, I guess I'll sleep in (I'm local) :D

Looking forward to it! I'll get to that Safeway by 9 as well, will have 146.460 open when I roll up.
