This is what winters were like in the 80s and 90s.
Klunkin West Cliff to avoid wrecking the trails. I don't know when they will dry out.

What's crazy is we're about to get 4 sunny days. There will really be few opportunities to ride good singletrack. And then the rain starts up again next week.
Snow ride option though
Crazy times huh? That's why my kids just bike
On a regular bike the best way to do it is to start from Grant Ranch and cut 1/3 of the climb out. On a road bike, with super light lycra... it's a hard climb since it never seems to end. And then on descent, it is sooo long and repetitive, and there's a climb on the descent.
On a mountain bike, it's harder. With snow clothes... way harder.
Snow stories:
I have on buddy who took 3 days to get to South Lake Tahoe. He staged in Auburn and got stuck. Road opened, got turned around. Yesterday at the crack of dawn, he went for it and finally made it. He is very happy today.

And then I have another buddy who got stranded in Tahoe for 2 days and couldn't get home due to the road closure. On the day the road opened, he drove back home... 14 hours.
And I have friend getting there now. Had to do a lot of digging. A lot.
