    Default Sat 27 Feb 2021 - Lost Park Road



    Trip planned to Lost Park Road.

    It's pretty mild without snow. Maybe hit a spur.

    Should have plenty of access to snow!

    Saturday 27 Feb 2021, meeting at the junction of 285 and Lost Park Road 10:30-ish.

    Will have CB and/or GMRS

    Might want to meet at Lost Park Road and 285 so folks coming up won’t have to back track. Keep in mind the last gas on 285 is Bailey and coming up 24 would be in Lake George. Just a thought.

    Thanks for the info Chris. The last gas stop is very helpful.

    Looking at the sat map, it looked like more room at the market compared to the road junction, so I chose that place.

    I'll move it to the junction, especially if there's no gas down at the market.

    The market sold a few years back and the new owners haven’t opened the pumps back up. The food isn’t bad at all if you are hungry.

    It didn’t look like there was much snow up that way. The wind will dictate everything, from the drifts to whether or not 285 is open. They have been closing it a lot lately.

    NWS:

    Saturday
    A 30 percent chance of snow, mainly after 11am. Partly sunny, with a high near 19. West wind 9 to 13 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph.

    Yea I was fooled by this after the run at 4 Mile back in December. Was rolling in on empty only to find the pumps are inactive. Made a harrowing 20+ mile drive to Bailey not knowing how accurate my fuel gauge is

    BREAK BREAK

    Aaron, do you have a winch and/or tow ropes? Just making sure because I do not

    Yes indeed, will have winches on two vehicles, I have a kinetic rope, multiple tow straps and a handful of snatch blocks.
