Anybody who went up today? I would like to ride up there tomorrow. Any snow/melting snow along the road?
Thanks!

A pic i saw from today looked icy. Pretty dodgy looking!
I want to get up there too but it's not good when there is ice up in the mountains.

I might try it. Mt Baldy Rd all the way up is doable now - there were a few cyclists going up it today. However, it is dirty, gravelly and wet. And traffic levels will be insane tomorrow.

Some Baldy Ski pics:

So, if you do go up, you'll get some nice views of some awfully white mountains.

I rode out to the base of GMR yesterday, and the gate was closed.
