Post by: lil_Truck on January 04, 2004, 11:39:54 AM
I keeped telling myself not to get my hope up.  When has the weather man been right????

My wife turns of the weather channel and they show this big front just running us over.  I still tryed not to get my hope up.  

This morning I wasn't supprised to see nothing on the ground.

Gone from possible 12" down to 2-4 and we'll be lucky to get that.

Actually we have been lucky this winter and missed most of it.Before this snow came we had none. It was in the 40's the last couple of weeks.

We got snow up in Portland, OR go figure. I home when i am not at school is about 30 min east of there and we got close to 6in. I went up wheelin at a place called Wildcat Mt and it was waiste deep in power along the road, it was a blast. I was the first one up there driving through fresh powder my buddies were throughly inpressed with the litke Kick. I got stuck twice I slide into the ditch. My buddies wh were with me just go out and gave a push the second time I had to winch casie I was on a hill. I took some pics i will try to post them this week.

Hey ksa421,   I just got home from wheeling up by you! I wheel two to three times a week up hwy66 not too far from ya! I leave Keno heading out clover creek twards lake of the woods (or bug's) west, Then make a left on dead indian road heading south till I get over by howard prairy lake drive past  hyat lake then at the end of the road there is the green springs inn which I have lunch or dinner or maybe just a piece of pie or like tonight cheese cake. then head east on hwy66 to home in Keno. look it up in yahoo maps I could prob. meet you up there at the snow play area where the kids go sledding or at the inn. Dennis.

I dont have class on Fri either, so just let me know. You can either PM me or Email. I check both daily. It would be fun to wheel with a fellow Zuker. :D

No I havent I am a ham radio op. and I prob. should to see what's up there,I talked to the guy who owns a repeater system up there while he was up working on it and I was on top of chase mountain checking on ours(keno radio club)but I think it would take a snow cat to get to soda now!There is a guy in my hood that owns a snow cat and said for a hundered buck's he would come get me so I take a cell, ham radio, and a gps with me when i go out! prob one of the reasons I get stupid out there by myself! it gets cold on this side of the mountain should be zero tonight!  nice for wheeling  ;D

Hey Jacob.   Recocnize the name?  I wildcat is just getting loaded up!    

Was wheeling out on Road 27 Out of Rhododendron and there was really good snow.  About 46 inches.  About the same as the Ski Bowl base.


Hey dennis i usually go with my cousin out south of Klamath falls to Deer MT.  That place is fun.  Then head up smaller roads to Montague then up to Henley.  Then back to Ashland and back.  That area is awesome.

I'll probably be passing you guys here soon going to Yreka.

Well right now its snowing at 1000 ft.  And its 11:30 and the system they say is coming isn't here yet... so i'm looking forward to more snow... once i get this clutch problem fixed.

Well if we both get stuck we can split the bill ;D, 100 bucks is cheap.  I got my old Dodge stuck once when i was going to school in Redding, CA and thye were gonna charge me 84 and hour to get it out with the 4 wheel drive wrecker. I said forget it and started digging ;). I am down for going where ever, you prob know more spot than I do so let me know.

Yea your up there a ways in or.  there is about 190 inches of snow just between you and me by crater lake I was thinking of driving there just to take a picture of it with my zuk ;D I did that with my heep once it was about tweny feet taller than the rig. makes for a nice pic but they keep upping the fees to get in there :'( there are more and more from southern oregon getting on this board maybe we could get some more wheeling in 8) Dennis.

That would be cool, I have never been up to Crater Lake. I have only lived down here a year now.  I have only really explored the Ashland side of the mountains around here. Up around Howard Prarie, up Soda Mountain, and a little ways out HWY 66.

there are some real good trails here if the gates are open going across the private lands, I ran the applegate trail and ended up by your place but i was on 35's in a high boy ford p.u. going over downed trees two to three feet across but was the first one of the year to go through there I guess ??? but there are caves and all kinds of things including antiques amongst the trees, alot of history here. if we get some rain this week like there forcasting we will be able to go on more trails by you , the heep club just did a run there last month it was a good run.
