I didnt know that!!! Hmmm....you are screwing up my master plan Where do they gate bowman at? Is it gated for snowmobiles or gated as in no entry?Dennis wrote:I thought they closed and gated Bowman rd. for the winter. Fordyce rd is closed and gated at the campground for snowmobiles. Eagle lakes is open but a little too rough for my wife (been there done that ), so thats out for me. Maybe some other time when my wife stays home.

We could also ride around Washington..
You guys can ride to Graniteville AND Washington, from North Bloomfield Road. Turn right off 49 (just after the Downieville split), drive all the way down to the Yuba River.
You can unload and ride there...however, before the road to Graniteville..it's paved for 9/10th of a mile. My advice is to drive to there..park and unload...you can go all the way to Bowman Lake...(if you can make it).
Now...this track shows us driving through the park...we drove slowly...the ranger told us to go around Back Bone Road. After that..it turns to paved for that one section.

Per Sierraville FS. The roads around bowman are still open as they are still logging in there - due to the "lack" of snow fall -
They wanted to make clear though that this area is normally closed thiis time of year and to stay on trails and avoid resource damage as the area is very wet.

We were actually a little early. We hit the road abot 10 mins. before 10:00. We were riding by 11:30. We road for a long time before we saw any snow. When we did reach it, I was reminded why solid axle quads don't work well there. My wife Wolverine has very little ground clearance. The 650 Brute has more, but when that axle gets buried its over. It only took about 15 min. before we decided to turn around. Naturally, I had to show off with my new tires and ended up burying myself up to the headlights. It took about 30 min of winching and digging to get myself out. We rode untill about 5:00. Still a fun day of riding.
