Anyone leading the "easy" trail run for Saturday? Looking through my California Backroads book, looks like Gold Valley trail might be good... Happy to help with organizing the easy run.
Sorry @Fast Eddy and @SIZZLE , no watching me wreck my s*** this year lol

Weather is looking sweeeet.
ill be up there at about 8 tonight
Basically how it feels here in Truckee..
So question... Can anyone actually tell me how long of a drive it is from Truckee.. My iPhone says 1.5 hours... How accurate is that? Been soooo long since I have been there... Thanks in advance.
An hour to gold lake, maybe 20 min of "off road" to the campsite
That's a very good idea....But won't that exclude Darrell???
Who's Nathan G.? I need you to pm me, about your shirt order. Thanks!
P.s. I'm meeting with Califab at 9am in Auburn off the 49. If anybody is headed out at that time and wants to caravan up let me know!

Just cause you ain't doing the Snake lake loop doesn't necessarily mean you won't wreck your s*** this year!
Is that the trail from Gold lake past the buttes then down to Sierra City? That's a fun drive and then we could resupply ice while we are in town.

Here's a few maps that folks can print out. Gold Valley trail starts up in Johnsville and goes out to 49. You can ignore my pink/yellow highlighting, but it does kinda follow the Gold Valley trail for most of the way
And tighter crop on the Lakes Basin area
My son and i are out the door,see you guys up there. Bring some ice and plenty of drinking water before you head inland,will be there around 2 p.m driving black 4runner with american flag out the window. Have a safe trip to all you guys.
It blows to be leaving at 4 am on Saturday... i should be there right around 6, which is early enough to setup camp, eat breakfast and go on the Snake Lake trail. But oh well.
Just broke something on my other vehicle. Transmission related. We're still going but probably won't take my rig on the trails. Can't risk breaking something and not having a vehicle to drive to work.
I should have made a few maps with the official layers in my gis system. Oh well, nextyear. 5 hours to my weekend! Already over work....
im pretty sure @SIZZLE is my spotter this year!!! don't worry, I wont make you walk 5 miles and move rock!
Going to grab some gas and ice then ill be on my way up. See you guys in a bit
Well she is all locked and loaded! I'll see you guys up there! I'm heading out tomorrow morning with Jose, meeting in auburn at 9am if anyone wants to roll with!
