Right on my attendance is weather dependent too. I work in the basin so if there's a chance of snow I'm at work.
MARCH DAY TRIP
Leading: @O.Dfj
When: March 19th
Trail: Nightingale Mine
Meet Up: Loves Truck Stop @ 0800 (825 Commerce Center Dr., I-80 Exit 46, Fernley, NV 89408)
Plan: Meet in Fernley, convoy to trail, general shenanigans, having fun.
Trail Info: Zach has so graciously already done a write up of the trail, you can find it HERE. THIS is also another good write up of what we will see. The trail is supposed to be pretty easy, however we have had a really sh#tty (That ones for you @mmnorthdirections) winter with a lot of rain and snow so it is more than likely that there will be some pretty bad washouts. The trail parallels a river bed so I would venture to say that this trail might not be stock friendly but you should still come if you can, we can stack rocks or do whatever to get you through without damage! That being said we have no idea what the condition of the road is but there are a lot of other trails to mess around on if we don't make it to the mine.
Post up if you're down to go play

I'm in. Awesome, hopefully it's not too washed out because that mine sounds sick.

I am up for these monthly trips, although currently 3+ hours just to the meeting spot is just outside my range for me right now.
Looks like a great run! Would love to do this but looks out of my range as well for a day trip. If anything changes I will post up. Location looks amazing.
I'm in! Marking it on the calendar now so my wife can't make other plans. Haha

Once the weather starts to warm up and the snow melts we will do more CA trips but with all the snow it makes it hard to find trails

What about something up in Mendocino or that way up 5? There's some trails up there.
We will figure out more trips Tom, we need a Hollister trip at some point this year.
