No, credit goes to Swanny on that location

We will have to be careful about too many cars at the trailhead. We can find a central spot to park most cars and shuttle in

Snowvols- we wait only for the road to the trailhead melts out. Otherwise its too far to skin in

I say hell yes to Shasta.

Shasta tends to be a shit show all the time, that is for climbing but not so much for riding. Car camping away from the trailheads is a nice idea so we do get the creature comforts like a somewhat warm bed, light packs, good food and beer! I agree with not going surrounding holiday weekends for the extra crowd factor and traffic. Lets hope the weather cooperates...

Fingers crossed for something like this

No pics because it was socked in, but Shasta town got.dumped on today black butte was snow top to bottom today. They're having a decent year snow wise actually.

Last time I was in there they wouldn't rent me crampons because I had said I would be using them with snowboard boots. I thought that was pretty ridiculous. But maybe they just didn't like my roll.

Just a heads up.

This sounds like a killer event!

hmmm i like the sounds of this whole shasta thing. I could be really into that.

Shasta shred! Tahoe peeps we should carpool, and the local sk8park is pretty sick too

I am trying to make plans for this summer. Any news to this splitfest? I know it is still early but thinking it will be here before we know it.

Yes, there is news. We are having a splitfest at Shasta this summer. It will be on the east side starting from the Brewer Trailhead.

Date will be released when we know the road is open , or soon to open. That could be anywhere from late June to mid-july.

Untill then we can only wait.

you can keep checking in with Robin (aka telewoman) . She will be the one to put out the word on the road opening

Anybody playing around on Lassen recently (conditions update most appreciated )?
