That looks like quite the adventure. Good on you for getting out in the snow and having a blast!First @NORCALGXP you missed out againother Broncos are @SS Bronco and @OddBall88 . Not in any order, this is just one of the best snow trips I have had in a long time.

Dang...missing all the fun. Did you guys post this trip somewhere or just keep the trip "private"?
I have an oil change scheduled (because I want the dealer to do the first one in case something's wrong with the oil pan) but the soonest I was able to get was in is 2 weeks.
Then I'm putting on my skid plates and think I'm ready to go. Not quite my goal of 5K, but I'm getting impatient.

This one was a spur of the moment scouting party run. So many random trails to try!
I haven't had this much snow fun since wheeling blizzards at Bald Mountain in the Shaver Ca area. I would love to do a group down there as I know the trail. Similar off camber wheeling and a few good obstacles. This was just one of those wheeling trips that perfectly timed the trail conditions to have a blast.
Miss time a trail like this and it can be bad. We hit it with 2-3" of fresh powder on top of ice giving us enough traction. I wacked my MetalCloak on the ice enough to know I need bigger tires.

Which reminds me, I have a curious question....
When I look up road closures on sites (for example https://www.fs.usda.gov/detailfull/tahoe/home) it seems like in winter with snow all the roads are closed. Yet people are doing a bunch of snow runs (not just GCB)
Are you finding roads that are actually open, are you just doing them anyway?

Watching what other people are running on Facebook? Then look them up online? I'm don't go past closed signs unless I'm working. I like to watch the recovery groups on Facebook, they usually tell people they are idiots on a closed road.
Most of the time people are running Morman Emigrate trail or Wentworth Springs which are paved county road that are not plowed. The OHV areas are open like Pierce Loop (eagle lakes) and the Rubicon is always open being a county road.
