Rat70Fj, what link ?
Can you get gas somewhere close to the trailhead ? I was hoping to get gas AND an in-n-out burger.

oops! I don't know about In and Outs, probably one in Reno. Get a "double double animal style" not on the menu, but damned good.

Closest fuel is in Tahoe City I believe, 10 miles or so to the trailhead.

There was a little store just past the turn off 89 as you are headed to the staging area. like 1/8 mile down 89 towards south lake.

Yes, he's aware of that. On Wed, he'll rent a car in SF and drive up the hill to meet you.

Thanks

Here is another opinion. Weather.com often links small towns to stuff nearby, in this case maybe Placerville or Polock Pines at a much lower elevation. Here is weather underground which simply copies the National Weather Service, clear and low 70's..........
