I just got back from a run "up" Tonga Ridge, east of Skykomish. It was snowing like hell, but man, the snow on the ground sucks!
If I didn't keep it just above idle, I would dig or slide. I did not air down, and my tires were at 20/20 or something like that. The little amount of snow under the new snow just plain sucks. My brother (London Gentleman) can vouch that I got "stuck" twice, including once downhill! The tires just created those little ice cups as soon as they spun...
Anyway, just trying to update folks what is out there. Crap snow! About a foot at 1000' and about 16" at (guessing...) 1500'
Let's hope it dumps!
