NW Toyotas Feb '10 Snow run pics

Bear with me folks, I didn't take the pics, but they will be posted up shortly, as folks get home and get into dry, warm clothes.



Weather report said snow level was 5000 ft, well higher then where we had planned to go.(Road ends around 2800)(okay, DC says at least 3200, stupid altimeter ) hit a little dusting of snow about 2400 ft them BAM!! About 2 feet of snow, the real good snowball kind.

I know you east coasters have more snow then this just walking out your front door. WE DON'T!! DEAL WITH IT! lol. And on to the pics............

Try not to gloat too much Vitaly... Ah, never mind, you earned it!!

How does the road end at 2800? It must drop back down, because we were at 3200 feet!

My 1987 stock altimeter stopped at 2800. Maybe Nix has a functioning one??

I did not have fancy pants GPS.

Of course, DC is correct.

Here is the lunchtime spot. If you click it to terrain, the stupid thing says 3200 ft.
