Nice! We saw Mark heading north in Pleasant Valley while we were heading south to work in the house.
Pictures from the trip.
Not a lot, but some good ones. Really fun trail, thank you for the invite.

Thanks for posting those great pictures guys. That one of us coming up over the rise is amazing. Good shot will. It was a great run with more folks than I thought would show up. It was good to see Ryan again and a few new faces with new rigs that did great on the trail. Will showing up was a surprise. We should have left to hit the trail but we were all BSing and I look over and see Will and the magical RAM. Hunter lake trail is a beautiful trail that is easy to get to and do.
How was the trail erosion?

The ruts were about the same as the last time I did the trail. Usual snakey ruts with a trickle, that you try to straddle. If you don't straddle them you can still get through them, but with some major flexing and sometimes pulling a tire. The one "obstacle" is more user friendly and didn't give anyone in our group any problems. Going out and down we ran into a group of wheeling Veterans that were coming up. One of the Jeeps broke a front shackle there, but he was still rolling. He was going to ratchet strap it to the frame and continue the trail.
It was a really fun day. I had been wanting to explore that area ever since I moved to Somerset area and had it as my backyard view. Sadly I am no longer up there. 
I took a TON of pics with my DSLR only to discover that I had forgotten to inset a memory card.
I guess I'll have to take another trip up there sooner rather than later!
I spotted a few places we could camp and there are some unnamed springs called out on GaiaGPS as well as a few other trails I'd like to explore that look like they make it down to the Truckee on the CA side.
Here's a link to the route I recorded
I am going to steel a few pics to add to the saved trail data.
