The entire Jenny Creek Trail was snowy. Trail head is right at about 10k' We started encountering bigger drifts about 1/2 way in so about 10.4k and the big drifts were close to Yankee Doodle Lake which is 10.8k. It was snowing hard at the top while we were there and the winds were cranking! I'm gussing most of our tracks are already gone! :eek:

We 'started' seeing white stuff coming into Ned, at about 8k. But nothing worth mentioning until the trailhead.

Wow! How are the BFG's UB? And it looks like Isaac chained up?

What do you guys forecast this winter to be like? Is it going to be so deep that we can't get through on the Snow/Pizza run again?

Thanks guys. Think I'll TiVo the games and see what it looks like around Coney Flats. I brined and did a good rub and grilled up a couple chickens tonight and chopped 'em up. Think we'll take some hot chocolate and have a little picnic.

I definitely chained up. I couldn't get up the hills towards the top. I had to have both lockers on, and it wanted to walk sideways on the off camber. UB had to pass me, and break trail again.

I doubt people are going through there after last night. It was drifting so bad, and snowing really hard. I bet our tracks are all but gone.
