Little Truckee Summit Snow Report

We got at least another 12". Got my sled out yesterday and it was great until I hit a soft spot. I see sun in the long term forecast. O-Boy. If anybody is out sledding today stop by.

Suns Out

The suns out and we have more snow then we have ever had this time of year. We had a great weekend . Saturday the snow was soft but by Sunday we could go. Today we can see where we are going, nice for a change.

We rode yesterday and the snow is soft and heavy. With the warm temp. in the day time and not freezing at night the snow is going down fast.
 
Off The Wall

Today was as good as gets and the sun was out . Just to see how much snow there is in the back country is amazing. I add up all the snow fall amounts today on this Thread and it is 49 feet of accumulated snow so far this year. I have 13 feet in the meadow right now. This is just amazing. With just 3 days of sun it is going fast. Still lots of good snow to be had. Here is Vince going up Paradise chutes today. 163 Polaris Pro. My son jumping. We needed the turbo sleds today to go up some of the the hills. I Love this sport.

To Much Snow

This is a 40' Steel storage container. it's going down. All work and no play today. We have a lot of snow up here. Snowmobiling awesome right now. Why go to the beach?

Went out today and with the little rain yesterday and cooler temperature's the snow has firmed up. The snow is little bumpy as you can see here. but you can go anywhere. This is over looking Sierraville today. Very nice to have sun. Bring your sunscreen.

Wow, can't believe that much new snow sets up that fast and a little ways down in the valley it's brown. That Jeep is COOL!!!
 
I was riding there Saturday. The roads and trails had not been groomed recently, and were somewhat rough and bumpy. Does anybody know when the trails will be groomed again?

Tim grooms the main road 07 on Sat. Tue. Th. Nights. The snow was soft and temp. were warm this weekend so the road got bumpy fast. Grooming is over on April 15, last time I talk to Tim.
 
New Snow

It's been snowing most of the day. We got 8" to 12". Nice snow. Got word Tim is grooming until the end of the month.
 
Good Find

My friend lost an orange and black dakine backpack today somewhere between weber and the parking lot when were were digging sleds out, if anybody finds it please let me know. Thank you

This is a great story. When you posted this it snowed 3 feet that night. I thought your pack would be lost for good. When riding with a good friend Mike said that he had found a back pack. Well here it is. I will PM you so we can hook up.

Spring Rain

What a nice week of spring riding. The snow has been incredible. This is a shot when we went to the Black Buttes. Now today we have rain coming down hard. This is not good.

Rode out of DLI on Friday, was raining all day. Went south towards Mammoth and got sunshine and great snow on Saturday. Was misting when I came back over Donner on Sunday morning :( I forget how much i love tree riding in california. But where was my sunshine? The amount of snow up high there is insane.
 
Independence Lake

This just makes me sick. Go to this web site www.sierraaccess.com. Friends Of Independence. They are having two meetings to tell us we can not snowmobile there any more. The next place is going to be Webber lake. If they keep this up we might as will sell our snowmobiles.
 
There is a questionnair regarding this BS that you can fill out but I lost the email.I heard the land was being purchased with tax payer money.Weber as you said Trackman is on the next hit list.I'll see if I can find the email address for anyone thats wants to help protect the area
 
Rain Snow

Rain Snow Rain Snow and no sun. Maybe 2"of new snow. Snow is still spring soft just needs spring sun so we can ride. I think it is on the way.

Hey Steve:

What area are those buttheads trying to close down - is it just Independance Lake or all the surrounding area like Carpenter Ridge to the East and the Lola ridge to the West? Never did find a map of the proposed closure. Whatever it is, it can't be good.

Thanks.

Yes it is the surrounding area's. Up over the hill to Carpenter Ridge and up over the hill to Lola. They are calling it a preserve. The definition of a preserve is no motorized vehicles. They have not shut us down yet. Do fill out the survey. Yes this is not good.
