A spring storm dropped 1-6 inches of snow in the Sierras over the past two days. Without a definitive update from the National Park Service on the condition of Tioga Road, my trek’s departure has been pushed back one week to ensure that the highway is clear of snow. I would have been hard pressed to get everything ready if I left tomorrow. The extra week will allow me to fine-tune my gear and do a bit more training. There’s also a good chance my buddy Ryan Doyle will be able to join me for the Yosemite to Carson City leg. I will post my planned route and schedule tomorrow.
Well, if you got stuck up there you could always do the Donner Party thing…
