Here's a quick preview to tonight's trip up tonga ridge, aired down to 12 just to get off a little ice towards the bottom just to save the hassle but no need for any lower, MTR's are a pretty good full pressure tire. I wish I had the TSL's on though in that powder !! Can't wait to give them a try hopefully next weekend.. Solo run just me and my lady so we didn't go too far up only about 7-8 miles. Great to get back in the snow with no one else's tracks to mess around in !

Looks like the Dirty 13 Fire Pit? The third Y if you start counting the train bridge. 3600ish

My altimeter is fairly accurate, within about 100 feet give or take and it was showing roughly 4200' just like every time, and I think it's the 4th or 5th Y actually, at any rate that's were we got up to an it was consistent dumping of snow the entire time from about 3500' and up, pretty happy to get out there! Probably gonna go again this weekend if this keeps up so I can head alot farther up in daylight. Anyone else going?
