Castella, CA

We made it to Castel­la in the rain around 8pm tonight (about 1160 miles in now). It’s been a typ­i­cal stretch with snow or rain every day. The weath­er fore­casts were only call­ing for 1–3 inch­es each day and night, but things changed a lit­tle last night when we woke up this morn­ing to 1–2 get off fresh snow. We were get­ting up every two hours to clear off and shov­el out the tarp. It was was pret­ty slow going and slog­ging through deep snow for most of the day today until we start­ed descend­ing into Castel­la. Snow lev­els were pret­ty low with this storm as there is snow down around 3500 feet now.
