Terrell, that is such a fun road, went up there a few weeks ago and it was still snowed in. Have to wait till end of month to ride that again.

Have you ridden up to the Big Hill Lookout? Just down the way from the first pic you shot above.

Ya Terrell that's one of my favorites too. Weekend before last me and a couple friends hit Wenworth Springs RD to Ice House Rd to I 50 then turned around and came back. Great run except for the pack of about 150 Harley's we ran into, as we were passing they were giving hand gestures that I'm not quite familiar with like pointing straight up at the sky, what the heck does that mean? :dunno: I had never riden with these guys and the best part is that they were on FJR's and the lead guy was on an old Honda Interceptor (looks like a big scooter from the 80's) and I got spanked. I think their average speed was like 90, I'm still workin on gettin my mo-jo back.

Here's a few pics I took up there in August 09.

We gotta get together for a group ride soon. :thumbsup:

Yeah Sunday before last I was in a huge group and the eye in the sky was working with 2 cars handing out tickets. I'm sure that's why they were pointing up

Ahhhh yes indeed, Pacemaster and I "play" there at least 4 times per riding season. And at the end of the road in Georgetown, the best burger in the state awaits you just west of the firestation at one of those "Mom & Pop" type restaurants.
We have held off going there to date because we hear that there is still snow drifts and run-off a few miles into Wentworth Springs Rd at the Ice House intersection. Anyone have a more current road condition update?

Oh, a year or two ago one of the regulars at said restaurant told us that over the course of a year 9 riders lost their lives there.

I need to go on a tour with you soon!

Anytime Rob. I rode Hwy 36 on Saturday with our NorCal Tour.

Imagine just trolling along at about 80-85 following one of these.

We rode Forest Rd 1 and still had snow at 5500 ft! Almost July.
