It was closed. There was a fire road you can hike up to get to it, but the rump rangers..err park rangers were being extra ornery. I went up there today to show my girl what snow was like(she's thai and had never seen snow first hadn) and the fuzz made us turn around, I had chains in the trunk and M+S tires but he was a sphincter so we flipped a u and stopped at the fire road only to come back to a parking ticket. It was really cold, but not all that interesting. I'm going to take a day off next week and take her up to my dad's cabin in pollock pines to see what snow is really like.
