FJ Cruisers of Northern California

1/17 Sierra Buttes Run

Leaving Sac around 8, hopefully be there by around 11, running the trail more or less quickly then trying to get out by 4-5pm since the gf has to work in the evening.

Anyone that wants to convoy up let me know. It's listed as an easy trail in the book so you don't need a hardcore super modified FJ.

Be careful - heavy snow is coming. Sunday afternoon may be a wet one. When is starts snowing and raining, it will build to be heavy. It looks like two to three weeks of weather. Should be 10 feet of new snow by Friday.

Head south. We just came back from Mojave area and there are trails there that can be done. No snow/winter conditions there. Cold but not raining. Not to say it might not rain in the next couple of weeks.

You can visit Trails.com and that will give you info. You could also go play at Jawbone Canyon www.ohvguide.com/maps/dovesprings.htm

If you went to Sierra City and higher today, let us know or see some pics. We want to make sure you back out safe as well. I received about 1.7 inches of rain already today ... still raining. Looks like SoCal will have at least three area with rivers at or above flood stage by Thursday.
