What an Awesome place. We were up snowmobiling the trails last week . While there was some hit and miss spots down low. The upper elevations were still great. The trails had not been groomed since the beginning on March however they still were surprisingly pretty good. We came in from the Little Truckee summit (late season ) trailhead. So I guess it's time to say goodbye to the 25-26 sled season. See ya next winter.

Remotely haunting of bygone eras.

Nice little area to use the restroom and catch butterflies. Large field to let your dog run around and lots of camping.

Very cool spot. We drove from Sacramento to Auburn and from Grass Valley to Downieville and on to Sierraville. Beautiful drive. The Yuba Pass was a highlight as we actually got to play a little in the snow. Great drive and took some great pics. These are just a few.
