Hi! What is the condition of the Mormon Immigrant trail? And where is Uncle toms cabin? We had to read a book about it at elementary school.

 

bye!

FYI, Uncle Tom's Cabin the anti-slavery novel by Harriet Beecher Stowe, has no relation to the bar that sometimes has wet t-shirt contests (Wentworth Springs Rd, Pollock Pines, CA 95726). Interesting that it was required reading in Italy, but not here.

Everything is under snow for a while.

Well after in the next few days, Mormon will be under many feet of snow!!! They do not plow that road.  Not sure where Uncle toms is exactly, but during winter storms, the only way to get there is mashing thru the deep snow in 4wheel drive.  My friend gets back today and we will get a date locked in.

Hey Philly, I am definitely interested in some snow wheeling this year, but maybe in the spring, when it starts to melt a bit.  Post up if you plan something later on.

Well we just got home yesterday. My friend had a big house in south lake rented out. So we drove down from north lake. 7 days In tahoe!!! It was great. We tried hitting eagle lakes and fordyce. Got like 200 ft in and that was it. Too much deep snow. So we drove up to Reno to try some trails out there. It was ok I guess. Still like 2 ft of snow and a crap load of mud. Not my kind of fun. Not many pics at all. Looks like well have to wait a few months due to all the snow.
