Dodge is awesome today. Sunny and warm with fucking great snow.






it’s gonna shit snow this week

low snow levels in the foothills will create chaos east and above Hwy 49 in the Low Sierra

good week to go to Yosemite NP and tour or ski Badger Pass - weekend reservations required for day use park entrance if you’re not a pass holder

DR says their forecast models are showing up to 100”

108 is going to be an absolute shit show

it’s already snowing on Hwy 49 - really cool to see sun and clouds and snow and poppies and lush green hills

I’m heading up to Shasta for a few days

[YaBoyBlue]

Good call mike! Low snow levels = Caltrans is spread pretty thin. Plus Ski Week means the roads are busy

[powdrhound]

I will be at Bear on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Anyone here planning on being there? I need a ski partner, so I can play in the trees and Griz, maybe a village run - and honestly be able to tell my lady about my day without her overworrying.

I think I’m going to park the RV in the lower lot for this trip.

I bailed on today. Not worth the shit show to storm ski.

[~mikey b]

Maybe, though I'd want to drive Tuesday eve, and that looks challenging by the current forecast.
Wednesday might be too deep, though that's no excuse. Did the Grizz ever open in 2-3 days after a not-that-big storm? (Mattly's 2 incher on Thursday night that skied like 2+ feet - methinks he did too much blower and confused his inches and feets)

207 impassable



edit: Hwy 4 closed

Dodge Ridge is closing through Wednesday due to extreme weather and to give employees a break

Be nice if they opened it once in a while...

Seems like a liability. That slides off on some poor kid and the lawyers will pounce.

Shit, when did I become an old man!?

China Peak has been closed since Friday, when they closed the road up to it. Road is still closed. They are hoping they can get the road back open by Thursday morning.

They've had around 7 or 8 feet of snow since Friday.

One of our Officers was at the road closure on SR-4 at Brice Station this morning. He had just stepped out of the patrol vehicle to stretch when a large tree fell on top of the patrol car. Thankfully there were no injuries to anyone on scene however the patrol car is totaled.
