It made it interesting
No kidding. I was not expecting a snow run. I'm curious to tackle it again when it's dry and see how it compares.

Finally got to the staging area about 5 pm-ish with the Yota, @Daryl, and myself. Aired up and headed home. The trail fix on the Yota was bulletproof compared to the B.S. bolt on high steer and rock ram. He drove it into South Lake Tahoe and felt comfortable enough to drive it home. Thanks again for your help @Daryl .

Looks like a great time! I’m hoping to make it on the next trip
Great adventure! Nice job guys. Good on you @DrDmoney and Daryl in helping the yota. Wish I could have been there! Weather looked interesting.

I’ll get more from my wife’s phone this weekend.
I can’t wait for @Indy ’s pics !

The weather definitely added to the challenge , for sure. Cadillac Hill was interesting with no traction and a stream running down it.
Cadillac was fun for sure. We had to pull cable on Tom's rig to get him up one area but by the time @bobthetj03 came through we knew exactly where we needed to place some rocks and he got up on his first attempt.
Glad you guys were able to Macgyver the Toyota off the trail. Did you happen to take any photos of the repair?

Got back to Loon about 7pm. Definitely epic! Made it home around 11pm.

I'm eager to hear a trail report on signal peak. Also, for all those night shots you took.

No doubt. The Rubicon is a challenging trail when dry. Hard when it’s wet. Damn near impossible when it snows. Thanks for setting up the run @DrDmoney!
