2014 Iron Mtn Road Patrol - #2 - March 2nd

    (SUNDAY RUN)

    The club has volunteered to perform two road patrols this year.

    We will be monitoring traffic on Iron Mountain Road during the day posted above. This effort involves handing out materials to travelers and managing a vehicle count.

    We will meet at the Pollock Pines Subway, just north of hwy 50, on the Sly Park exit. Meeting time: 830
    We will leave for the road by 9AM, stopping by the information station to gather supplies.
    We will set up the checkpoint some where we have snow for family play, or safety, depending on the weather.
    The club monitors the station until about 3-4 PM at which time we return the supplies to the information station and head out for the day.

    Most of the day is free so many people will take off for snow runs. We usually set up where kids can play in the snow and hopefully have a fire pit going all day long. We can coordinate food/supplies/fire pit details as the date gets closer but be sure to mark your calender.

    The new trailmaster will get to lead this event!

    Can I get a count of who is planning to do the Road Patrol next weekend? I am assuming this run is still happening, and that there is snow up there? I am planning on holding my member BBQ, and would like to know to the approximate number of people so I know how much to bring. I am planning on providing hot dogs, and hamburgers (along with buns, and condiments). Please feel free to contribute anything you might want to have with them such as chips, potato salad, cookies, etc.

    We are expecting rain this Wednesday - Saturday in Pollock Pines. Weather looks pretty warm, Snow Level will be much higher, probably above 6000 feet (the upper end of Iron Mountain). Count us in for 2, hoping we get a snow storm or 2 beforehand... We can bring waters and sodas.

    I can take a run up the week before and check conditions if needed.

    I have one I was planning on bringing...

    Was looking at the Smittybilt Trail Shade to get someday as well. Packs up much smaller and less weight.
