Thanks i'ii do that..
Rode out of Tamarack sno-park today. At the snopark 2' deep. As we got back in there a ways it was over 3' deep and riding was great.
thats great news. when i was up there about 2 weeks ago there wasnt even enough to go sledding with the kids.
anyone been up there? looking at heading up the week after christmas to do some adjustment. this will be the first time it will be out in 2 yrs.
Hey shredder, went riding on Sunday,everything groomed from Lakeshore through the Rancheria and up Kaiser, and up to White Bark.Some pretty good riding up around White Bark, and i heard they got another 6-8 inches Mon. Anyway not sure about the grooming at Tamarack, but a lot of fun riding up off of Kaiser.

We will be up there New Years weekend with the family at their cabin.
planning on heading up over new years as long as parts get here soon.
Trails are not gromed at Tamarack,Not in bad shape at all
There is only one restaurant open in Huntington lake. One sled shop with a gas station and nothing else except trails and private cabins that may be for rent.
There is an official Sno-park with bathroom.
More choices at Shaver Lake and a forum favorite https://westcoastsleds.com
Shaver has churches, many general stores, hardware stores, several gas stations ... etc.
Shaver Lake and Huntington Lake get most of their income from recreation ... 90% plus. The rest of the income is from water. The water flows from Edison to Huntington to Shaver lake generating power and used for drinking , agriculture. This water system generates the more energy than any other water system in California.

Other places Tamarack between Shaver and Hunmtington seems to have nice riding.
You can stay at Tamarack Lodge and ride from your room / parking lot.

At Huntington, the Lakeshore Inn has cabins for rent, and u can ride directly from your front door . It also has a restaurant, bar, and store.There is also a lot of condos for rent, and at least one custom 4 bd.home with garage, that you can ride directly from.Give Dave and Mark a call at the Rancheria (559 893-3234) they have the sled shop and sled rentals, they also have a well supplied store.They are avid sledders and all around great guys. I am sure they will be happy to point you in the right direction.

You can also rent a place at the Condos.....right above the Fire Station just past Rancheria.

During "peak" seasons at Tamarack Lodge is $200 a night.
Lakeshore Inn is 80-170 plus

You can "park" at any of the sno-parks and stay with out moving for up to 5 days.
