Can anyone tell me if Baker is really getting the snow that they say... 2-3ft??? I'd like to at least get a decent road ride in somewhere... Any suggestions on where to go..?

Baker currently is getting pounded with snow, feet not inches unfortunately it's at the higher elevations like Retodd said, and you're unable to get to the higher elevations until there is at least two feet of snow in Schrieber meadows, I'm guessing the meadows are around 3,800-4,000 feet then there's the snowbridge to deal with, it takes a while for that to build up. The snowlevel needs to drop quite a bit to ride the roads at Baker, as far as a road ride goes (early) best bet would be Smithbrook Stevens pass around 4,000 feet where you unload, probably a little patience would be best though. It will be here soon enough, no sense in breaking stuff before the season starts.

Patience is right...this time of year is pure torture!! And I got my kid a sled to go with,,,,so now he get's to be tortured as well....
Stampede/GC road ride will probably be before Baker get's the snowbridge developed. Plus no worries about breaking stuff.

I just checked my new permit it says nov-april does not specify date.
passes are required once they begin plowing and post the "no wheeled vehicles beyond this point" signs.
