Update on California 395 now?

Well we did get away from Las Vegas and being the adventurous (crazy) souls that we are.....we went through death valley. It was okay going down but coming up was !**##!!!!. Let's put it this way....our sphincter muscles are well developed after this little jaunt! Sorry. Hope this doesn't offend anyone. LOL. I'm a nurse so I use anatomical descriptions often! But we made it up out of the pit and are much more knowledgeable about the West.

As for 395...Thanks so much to those that encouraged us to take this route. It was beautiful! Lots of snow but roads were great. No chains required! We stopped and slept in one of the rest areas along the way (shared with other RVs and Trucks). That worked out good.
I wish I could post pictures but I still haven't figured that one out. They are always too big.

We are currently in Carson City to dump tanks, do laundry and get a good shower then will probably head on to Fair Oaks.......unless someone has other suggestions.LOL

Y'all are great and every one of you gave us ideas and warnings and they were correct so I just need to say "Thanks" one more time!

Am I confused?

You posted this same exact post on Nov. 6.

Are you still in Carson?

So sorry I'm such a PITA. I responded in my original post to the helpful folks that guided me through that phase of my travel and got no response so I posted it again so they could read it and say "I told you so" regarding Death Valley. So sorry it offended some folks. I would say it won't happen again but I'm such a ditz it probably will so just skip my posts if you want to.

Okay, phase one complete. Now keep your eye on the next storm coming through tonight through Monday. Either leave now to beat the snow over Donner, or wait til later in the week. Enjoy.
