We decided to bag it. If cadillac is icy it could be an interesting trip down to say the least.

We went up today, and it was fine going in, walker was an icy S.O.B. Had a nice bbq at the box, then turned around and headed out back to loon. Slabs took some throttle to get out, but wasn't too bad.

Hey Sally,

What's Iron Mountain road like up by your place right now? Did it get covered yet? I know they closed the Silverfork gate already, and they normally do not do that until Iron Mountain is real deep.

I am thinking about heading up your way this weekend to play a little....

I went up iron mountain until the turnoff for leek springs on Saturday. They are logging pretty far up the road, so it's like a freeway right now. A big slippery freeway.
Up at leeks lookout there was about 2 ft of snow.

why would cadillac not get icy? I was thinking that could be a problem around the stair step and v-rock.
