Today the temp is about 30 deg F with light snow falling, just started in town about 7am.  The snow play conditions are great there is lots of snow.  The two main issues today will be traffic and if the chain control go on which I think will happen.  So if you can, a better idea would be to wait until the weather clears next week and come up then and enjoy the snow.

Always make sure you carry chains that fit your car and that you know how to install them. 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.

If you have any questions, please feel free to call us at Mountain Hardware Mon – Sat 8:30am-5:30pm and Sunday 8:30am-4:30pm. We are located at 1390 Hwy #2 in Wrightwood on the north side of the highway and have a large parking area and restrooms

I hope you have a great day

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Snow conditions are great with more than 2 feet in the snow play areas.  Temp this morning is about 28 deg F with some broken clouds but looks like we will have lots of sunshine today.  Again the only issue with coming up will be with traffic.  So please plan on arriving in town by about 9am or after 1pm to avoid most of the traffic.  Weather man is calling for another storm starting tomorrow with up to 1 foot of snow.  So if you do not make it today we  have plenty of snow and it  looks like we will be getting more soon.

Conditions are great lots of snow and no chain controls on the roads.  But there is lots of traffic.  I recommend that you arrive in town by 8:30am or wait until after 1pm that way you can avoid most of the traffic.  The good news is that we have plenty of snow so if you can come up next week during the week you will have the area all to yourself.

The snow is great for a fun day of sledding.  There is 2plus feet of snow in the snow play areas.  So conditions should be good for sometime.  Today will be cold current temp is 15 deg F.  Chains are currently required from the junction of 138 and hwy #2.

The main problem with coming up here today will be the traffic.  You should plan on being in town by 9am or wait until after  1 pm when the traffic will ease. If you can come up to play in the snow next week monday-friday you will have NO traffic problems.  Just an idea.

Weather has been great for fun in the snow.  There is about 2 feet of snow in the snow play areas, high temperatures in the 50’s and blue sky.  The weather man is calling for a storm tonight and into Wed.  Also there have been traffic problems because everyone wants to come and have fun in the snow.  So make sure you are in town by 8:30am and if not then wait until after 1pm as the traffic usually eases.  Also if possible to take time off next week during the week you will have the area to yourself.  Just an idea.

The conditions are great for snow play or just spending the day outside.  The weather has been sunny and highs in the mid 50’s.  With over 2 feet of snow in the sleding areas it is  great.  Because of the large number of vistors coming up please plan on arriving in town by 9am  or after about 1pm avoid most of the traffic.

Good Morning Everyone

We received about 3″ of new snow last night, temperature this morning is 37 degrees, over the 1 1/2-2 feet we got just before Christmas.  So conditions should be great.  At this time there are no chain controls, but always be prepared, conditions can change.  So come on up and enjoy some great time in the snow.  Stop by and we can supply you with anything you need.  Also tell us you saw the report on line.

I just came back from the snow play areas and they look great with lots of snow 11/2-2 feet for snow. Most of it still untracked.  The areas up Hwy #2 west of the ski area along the road and in the Grassy Hollow area look the best.

Mountain Hardware will be closed on Christmas Day but the Wrightwood Mini Mart will be open with sleds hat and gloves.  They are located about 100 yards west of our location and on the south side of the highway.  We will be open again on 12/26/10 at 8:30am.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL
