Is there snow in Murphys or just on the pass?

Just on the pass between Murphys and Markleeville - very unlikely there would be snow in Murphys....

Murphys is at 2,100 feet. Snow level is about 7,000. Highway 49 is always nice. Ebbetts Pass was closed last night.

Looks like a change in plans, I will be leaving Sat morning and returning Sunday. Not sure what time yet on Sat, but it will be early.

If the car checks out tomorrow, I'm heading up Saturday afternoon and back on Sunday morning.

I have a room reservation for Saturday night if anyone is interested. They may be sold out but don’t know for sure. I will cancel the room on Wednesday or Thursday if no takers. PM me if interested.

I really wanted to make this event but turns out my favorite uncle from Chicago will be visiting and he loves to ride in the cobra. Oh well, I guess I’ll just have to take him to Sears and cruise the beautiful wine country all weekend.

Pat & Jamo, thanks for the invite and putting this together. I’ll catch you guys down the road.

Have a great time, John

John...ditto what Pat said. Bring him!

BTW...Pat's the engineer on this train, and thankusbetogawd for him thinking of it. Looks like some nice warm weather next week...should be one of those times when the rest of the world sucks while California shines.

Jamo,

I know he would love it but just not enough time. He has been a XKE man for many years, now has 2 Austin Healey 3000, 59 Morgan, and a 68 XKE roadster. He flew fighters in Vietnam and later flew Air Force-2 during Nixon. Has some funny flying stories about Kissinger and Dick’s daughters.

Thanks again and talk soon, John

I feel like a weatherman, but can't pass this up. I drove up the Ebbetts Pass National Scenic Highway (Highway 4 from Arnold to Markleville) to Bear Valley today for a retreat. If the weather holds for you, you need to drive up to Bear Valley or Alpline Lake. I'm not a botanist, but the trees are incredible this time of year. Have fun.

Is this still the agenda? I'd like to join you and get to meet some of you.
