On Sunday, 5/24/2020, a group of 6 vehicles including:
Adam-on the rx-3rd gen 4runner
Alex-oh shift-5th gen 4runner
Jimmy-j1000-lc100
Dom-domofthedead-2nd gen taco
And hopefully future club members:
Chris in his nice lc80
Phil in his also nice 470
A nice run of balanced rock road with the full group. Weather was nice despite some rain. Only Moderate traffic on the trail considering the very large crowd of campers in the area. We did run across a young man that had gotten lost trying to follow his gps back to his friends camp site. He had managed to get his infinity sedan all the way to the bottom of the trail but wasn't able to make it back out. He declined our advice and help so we wished him luck. (We later came across rangers that we informed about our unfortunate buddy.) Due to lack of time remaining in the day (chris in his 80 was also having oil pressure issues), only Adam and I decided to run Schubarth loop. Cloud cover obstructed most of the notable views but gave a very nice atmosphere to our journey. Rain gave way to graupel to soft snow but trail conditions never got too bad for us. Very nice day with good people. Social distancing was observed. Thank you to everyone involved for having a good time and putting up with my inexperience on this unfamiliar trail as lead.
