Snow at 20 Inches and Counting

The snow keeps falling on Mount Charleston.  The snow base was 20 inches at 11:00 am and the National Weather Service is predicting 3 to 6 more inches by tomorrow.

Driving up SR-156, the snow level starts around 4,500 feet. Currently snow chains or 4 wheel drive vehicles with snow tires are required. All though the road is being plowed, when I drove up there was over 1 inch of snow blanketing the road in certain sections.

If you decide to head up, make sure to stay safe. Dress warm, bring extra food and water and make sure you are familiar with how to install snow chains on your vehicle.
