I am planning to drive from ID to the Bay Area this weekend. I have been looking at the forecast model output all morning here at work, and decided to delay my departure by 1 day. Trying to cross Donner Pass sat night or Sun morning looks like a dead issue.

It looks like a good break late Sun night into Monday over Donner Pass, so that is what I am shooting for. I live for driving in snow, but if the pass is closed, it is game over. I'll probably go as far as Reno on Sunday, then shoot the pass Mon morn.

Just cut down Hwy 395 to Carson City and then take Hwy 50 over the crest. Much easier than dealing with the flatlanders and truckers on I-80.

I did Donner Summit yesterday am (on my Road King) after
waiting for two days in Colfax.

Pavement was wet but free of snow. Problem is all the
traffic, clutch hand is sore. Bike is filthy. Never so
glad to get to Boomtown!
