As DLAK said, majority will probably stay on the main route, with a select few breaking off to do the more difficult trails. I know several people that have done Gold Mtn in stock 4 runners but I do not recommend it as there are 3-4 spots that body damage would be likely. NO ONE will be left alone on the trail. Only exception is if they have to leave and we stop as a group, go over the map to make sure they know the route back to highway before they take off and ensure they have a phone number to call to verify they made it safely.

Jacoby Canyon be done 11-12 and can cut out from there, the rest of the trail taking our time and plenty of scenic photographs 3-5pm Good thing is there are plenty of options to get back to Highway if you need to split off. This is all assuming no Murphy.

Weather- High of 50 Low of 18 expect it to be around 30 when we arrive at 0800 probability of mud small patches of snow possible ice on the trails because they are on the North side of the Mtn and tend to shade it pretty well and keep it even if the other sides are bare.

I'm up here right now. There is very little snow on the ground. Looks like most of the snow is man made at the resort. There are patches off ice here and there, but it's pretty dry for the most part. This place is mostly a ghost town. Most people have stayed away due to low snow fall.

you are fine without those. I made that list when it was looking like it might be snowing a couple weeks ago. There are enough of us with recovery gear that can compensate. Come enjoy the MTN and the beautiful views we will have tomorrow. Take a look at some of our gear and then can decide on what you need.

ahhhhh shucks. Well I'll befriend him when we get there then I'm cool. Right. Nah just playin. lookin forward for tomorrow. see you all there.
 
im meeting up Dlak at the McDonalds off of the 10FWY and Fairplex Dr exit in Pomona @ 6:00 AM if anyone is coming from the LA/SGV area and wants to roll together.
 
Thanks for a great run Pikeman, not as easy as I expected though. Left after lunch and took 3N32 to 3N16, then back down to Fawnskin via 2N09, there was a ton of ice on the trails, but didn't have any real trouble.
