If you have to ask, i wouldnt attempt the journey. I was dodging all kinds of FWD and RWD cars trying to go up/back down it.

Last year i was on the news, drifting in that lot with all the caltrans guys watching me...a CHP asking if everything was OK LOL...and 2 hardcore Miatas crossing thru the intersection!

I might be up there.

HAHA. you made the thread man. There were no incidents on hwy 9 last night. We spoke with some officers down by the lookout last night at 4am and they werent too concerned about people messing around in parking lots. Sliding up and down the corners is another story. LOL at wing skating last night. Wouldnt go up there until around midnight though, way too crowded right now.
See you guys up there again!

I went up 9 to four corners today around 11. There was so much snow! I took a bunch of pictures that I will put up later. Unfortunately my subie is out in Texas so I took a 350z up which wasn't toooo fun in all that sludge.

Made it up there around 10:30 and hung out for like 20 min. As you can see definitely still snow up there. Fog got pretty thick in the last part of 9 before the parking lot, watch out for that if you're going up there. Also saw a white STI heading up 9 right when I popped out of the hills back on to the main street.

It was pretty much impossible to get any pics up there with the flash because of all the fog.
