Happy Easter

The weather is Great. Come on up for a hike, Picnic or a drive in the Mountains.  The road to Blue Ridge is open at Inspiration Point.  I am not sure at this time how far the road is open but I would image it is open to Guffy Camp Ground.  We are starting to get some PCT hikers coming through so if you see someone on the PCT Trail they may be on there way to Canada.

We have snow so bring the kids, grandmother, neighbor kids, and the dog.  Enjoy the snow while we still have it.  See the pictures from yesterday’s post.

Only play in the snow on Public lands, (stop to see us at Mountain Hardware and  we can provide you with a map and info where the best conditions are currently). Please respect private property and do not play there.   You will also need an Adventure Pass $5.00 per day or $30.00 for a year we can supply that for you. Please remember to always pick up and take home any trash as this will make it nicer for the next visitor.

Good Morning

Yes we received another 3-4 inches of snow last night.  The temp.is currently in the low 20’s with cloudy skies.  The Weather Service is calling for more snow today.  So the snow play conditions are very good.  The only problem right now is that chains are required just west of town so if you are coming please be ready to use chains.  This condition may be removed latter in the day so if you like you can call us latter for the current rods conditions.
