Isn't it funny how the same things can be observed so differently by two people.

I am not discrediting or trying to dis on you, but I ran there today and had a great time. The snow was a course grainy texture that did not pack and slick up. You could dig down or float on top at will.

Even climbing the hills in 3 feet of snow was doable without too much work.

best day of wheeling in a while.

How was the road up to the campground? How much snow was at the campground.

What's the wall thinkness on those tractor/threaded tubes you're using for control arms?

Those are off the shelf aren't they?

road is plowed all the way to the snow park.

side road to camp is not plowed, but only a foot or so deep. a 4x4 can get in and out no problem

sunrise trail varies from 1-3 feet deep. doable but watch the bridges, they are slick and seem narrower with snow on them.
open spaces average about 3 feet of snow on the trails

busy was cut off at the top by a downed tree, shutting off the entrance. we did not have a chain saw to take it out.
