^Yup.....pretty good conditions for April-May, NOT for January. Need colder temps, less wind, and more snow. Was it fun, yeah, but I'd rate it at the bottom of all my January rides.

We rode there the 2nd thru the 8th. No rain. We had great conditions and it was our first trip there and it exceeded my expectations thanks in part to a local who guided us (in many ways) on Sunday. Wednesday and Thursday was sunny no wind and in the lower 40's in the Madres. It did beat down the snow some, but still was nice, and the four of us only got lost once and stuck 20 times.:face-icon-small-con

Boys behind the counter at TNT said it rained last week up behind Centennial. If true makes 2 rain storms this winter.

With the warmer temps, its doesn't look good for a little while does it? Heading out there the 1st of February coming from Indiana, will it be worth the trip or hold off until later in the season?

Thanks

its kind of one of those years when you hear they're getting snow, you jump in your vehicle and head for the mountains.
