Enough snow already! 
Would anyone be interested in a Hell Hole run on 5/21?

Hell Hole Reservoir. About 1/2 hour as the crow flies and 3 hours as the Jeep drives. 😀

Offline Has anyone gone in through Foresthill? The last couple of times we met in Georgetown but going in from Auburn through Foresthill would cut the 40 minute (Google Maps time) drive to Georgetown.
According to Google Maps it's the same amount of time from Auburn to Hell Hole as it is from Georgetown to Hell Hole (2hrs 5min).
If Georgetown is more central for everyone that's fine. Either way I'm in if there are enough vehicles! 😀

Here's the directions Google Maps gives from the Starbucks near Foresthill Rd to the trail head. Not sure how accurate it is. Might need someone with an accurate odometer or GPS for some of the turns. 😀

Offline Fastest route is route 2 via Robinson Flat. You don't have the canyon and all those 20 mile an hour turns to deal with. Google map does not take that in to consideration.

Yeah, I'm not up for a snow run. It's supposed to be warmer and sunny later in the week. How low is it snowing and is it going to stick?

Offline Snow is expected in the 4500 to 5500 ft range, with considerable snow above 6000 ft. So far about 1 ft has fallen at the 5000ft range. I believe this is just above the hell hole elevation. It might make for an interesting run Sat. There would probably be very little snow, but a lot of mud. Also, it is supposed to be 79 on Thursday and 76 on Friday. Saturday will be a little cooler.

Maybe there are some nice trails around Auburn?
