Default 4/23 snow run

This is a general snow run on a paved road that is not plowed.

This run is Wentworth Springs road between Georgetown and Crystal Basin ( the Rubicon). We are meeting at the Georgetown general store at 9 am, or the El Dorado Hills Safeway at 8 am.

You can pm me if you'd like more details.

For those of you who have never been to Georgetown before this is the original entrance to the Rubicon, and where the Jeepers Jamboree stages. Wentworth springs road is about 30 miles long and it ends at a plowed road near Loon lake. We are not running any part of the Rubicon on this run (you'll see why when you come on this run).

Hopefully the timing is still ok.

I have about 7 vehicles confirmed at this point so it should be a good turnout. Snow runs are always fun, even with a small group.

Everyone should be sure to carry at least one recovery strap, and have front and rear recovery points.

Gotta check with the family on plans, but now realizing it's Easter, looking unlikely.

AvnxScout - that just means you won't have to wait behind my arse again as I winch out! Or... with your fancy new bumper maybe you'd just push me up the slippery stuff.

I'd love to make this run. Haven't upgraded rubber yet, I think I'd just be a road block, hope to catch the next round. Enjoy!
