Rubicon - November 9-11th

[Jeep450r]

Yeah it snowed last weekend, but the snow is gone by now. The forecast shows showers tonight but the weather for the next ten days seems pretty fair.

Don't know if this helps or not guys but there was 8 - 12" on Corral Hollow last weekend. Of course that is a bit higher than the Con.

Trail conditions are looking great. The storm that just passed through the Rubicon was too warm to produce snow... it was a wet storm. And the forecast shows sunny days in all of the ten day forecast. Looking promising!

According to snotel, at 7700' there is 4" of snow left up there. There was 15" a week ago. Barring any new snow, it will be dry up there by the 9th. I'd love to go, but still haven't fixed my steering and front axle shafts from the beating on the Dusy.

lol Connor, Parker told me about that. Sounds... not fun..

so did he skid down the snowy slabs ?

 

[Jeep450r]

No, the story I heard was when they tried making it up walker hill i believe. Just lots of slipping and winching and sucking. no bueno

 

[blondejoncherokee]

just walker was that bad?
wow. thats crappy. was it covered in snow or just wet ?

 

[Jeep450r]

im not entirely sure.... cant remember the story that well lol. ill let connor chime in

 

[connor0770]

the scary part i was referring to was when they went out.. Parker slid down the slabs and then wes slid into him because there was literally no traction... Then when they tried getting out it was pin it to win it or you lose momentum and slide down. Basically a situation I would never want to be in..
