It took us 9 hours drove all the way north to red bluff in a rx350 with all season tires. Big relief when we got out of the mountains suddenly the roads were wet and started to rain. I was arrived at the gate just in time as they were boarding the last zone. What a day 😂😂….

      Yes I remember that storm we had drifts 3 feet deep. I got stuck in a huge drift in my lifted truck on 33s. I had to air down my tires and shovel abit but I got out. We have not had a storm like that since in denver.

      I’m also on the Front Range but I can tell you that area of Cal/Nev sees more snowfall than any other place in the lower 48 year after year. 😅

      @@joelbittner8791 I don't disagree. The northern mountains of Colorado are going to be blasted this weekend, as much as 2 ft. near Steamboat Springs.

    I don't know why but I love so much to drive in such weather, especially when it's the worst weather conditions, when you have a good and true capable 4x4. You just sit, drive and enjoy what is outside.

    Man, to just be "hunkered down" in one of those beautiful homes, would be amazing...

    Respect that you did all this with the window cracked open.

    Amazing to see. I live about an hour west of this where the snow is much tamer. This is beautiful, but much nicer to see from my easy chair than through my car windshield.

    Here in Western Siberia, such weather in winter is considered a thaw. But of snow, is a lot even by our standards. You have shaken the foundations of my ideas about California.

    It was a great ride, I even heard the waves of the lake and the winter wind. A very nice, interesting trip. I would like to do this trip at the same time. Greetings from Stuttgart Germany totally without snow.
