I'm curious as well, Co workers wanna run the rubicon may 26. Not sure if that will be too early.

No, we've just been up along 80. Plenty of snow at the higher elevations.

Snow's coming in tomorrow any again and over the weekend so it might be a little dicy.

It's snowing currently up above 6,000.

Loon is about 6,000 ft. Just for reference.

Late snow makes the rubicon rough because of the shade and elevation on the Tahoe side.

Barring rain, doorless n topless is fine.

One week. Hopefully everyone can make it.

$5 to get in.

Look for an orange jeep by the restrooms in the 4x4 area!

I'm new to the Jeeping and wheeling world and I'm hoping to attend (have to move some things around and convince the wife). I have a stock (except for some Ace rails) '15 JKU. In order to run the obstacles, do I need something more (lift, bigger tires, etc.) or will stock work just fine for what you're planning on showing everyone?

Thank you for putting something like this together!
