That picture you posted is the Hualapai mountain lodge bar and restaurant at the top of the mountain. The picture I posted is from our property up there.
Yes, that is at the lodge. Been wanting to get up there for years. Nice area for sure. Cool that you have property up there. I want to go back to the restaurant and when there is snow up there.

We had some decent snow here in Agua Dulce the last few days…now just dealing with all of the snapped tree branches on alot of the pepper trees around the property. Taking a break and get back to work while the weather is good.

I’m on the north east side of the lake, we’ve still not been plowed out yet. Since the storm started, not a single pass down my road. I’ve got 5’ at least all the way down my street, that is gonna set up like concrete. 2 more feet possible this week. I’ve never seen it where the county roads department has not run the plows. It’s past plow truck work now, it’s loader work now. The county has plow trucks and blades, from what I’ve seen, but I don’t remember many loaders. We’ll be holed up another week I bet. It’s been a long time since Ive seen this much snow for sure, but back then they were on top of snow removal. Crazy…

Yep. West side myself. Couldn’t get to work this morning and no plowing seen yet. I did my driveway but can’t get further.

LA local news (ch 9?) reported 100+ inches in Big Bear from this last storm system, with more on the way. I find it interesting, 99%+ of news media comments about the snow and rainfall seems to be horrorific, bitching and moaning. Don't hear any of them saying how it eases the drought and helps to refill many of our lakes. Today's news media just isn't much into Good News.

News organizations are all about ratings and clicks. No different than RDP. Dave can post a boating video and it gets a couple dozen replies. Anyone starts a “sky is falling” thread and you can’t keep up with replies.

Surprisingly no, and they could most likely only make you carry liability, like a boat.
The most fun was trying to find someone to insure property (dock) that has a parcel number (and therefore fucking property taxes) but no actual house on it. Most home insurance won’t do it.

ALA had a dock insurance company that would write insurance but they bailed years ago. ALA just announced they found a new partner to write dock insurance, but I doubt that’s any comfort to the at least a dozen dock owners who had their docks sink or turn turtle from the snow load.

I’m still waiting to hear on our dock but I can’t get to it from land to check it. Paid a dock company for a dock watch service but I’m sure they have their hands full with all the damaged docks.

Seen it I think 2017 when every reservoir was overflowing and streams running full governor still said one year doesn’t get out of drought still. They will always spin it their way. IMO you can’t hold anymore water you ain’t in a drought.

Same thing with fire danger low rain year brush is dry this is the worst when it’s a year like this we’ll now there’s more brush it’s the worst we have seen.

Seems like the singles with canopies are flipping over. No ballast underneath, all the ballast is now 8’ in the air. Several of my homies are in trouble right now.

Just an FYI but the guy with the drone is taking pictures of various areas and posting them of FB.

I can post the ones from some of Blue Jay Bay if anyone wants to see them and doesn’t have FB.

My buddy who owns a ski in/ski out condo above Eagle Lodge in Mammoth just texted me that there was a small avalanche that covered the road into their parking garage. It came off a 15ish foot high retaining wall.

The property manager told him at one point today they got 3 feet in 2 hours.

Here's the most recent rainfall totals for the year.
