Current Playa Conditions

I remembered to take some pics for you all.

Here’s what I got.

  1. 40.77274, -119.20641 ~ 4:45 & I
  2. 40.77694, -119.19832 ~ 4 & E
  3. 40.7888, -119.20251 ~ Man-ish
    4&5. 40.78758, -119.2132 ~ 7:30 & A
    6&7. 40.79309, -119.21369 ~ 8:45 & C

I’m having too much fun doing other shit to get more, so this is the best I can do unless I’m inspired to do more. There are pockets of hard pack, and of course the playa highways are hard packed too.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say it could be hot and dusty for the Nevada regional this Labor Day.

Antelope Lake (Plumas NF) Water Level Expectations

I’m looking at camping on Antelope Lake (NW Plumas NF) as part of a July road trip across NW NV and across the border in CA. For the CA leg I’m hoping to do some fishing along my hikes, and saw sites available here.

But when I looked at google maps, I noticed some of the lake appears dry. I’m guessing it’s because that portion of the map is from a different date of image captures, but it still gives me pause about camping in this area.

Lake would be great, but I’d at least like some rivers/streams to fish in the area while hiking. Hoping some folks might be local or frequent the area and have some intel on lake conditions and seasonal water level (fishing conditions would be even better).

Trying to decide if I should look closer to Greagle and just keep this spot as a backup in case I can’t find anything down that way.

Apologies if there’s some site that has this info, and if there is please do point me that way.
