Take 80 east to Canyon Way (just past Weimar) to Yankee Jims road. Take Yankee Jims all the way to Forest Hill. You can take 49 home. Have fun!

You want a dirt road that can be a little challenging this time of year? Try this... Dutch Flat to 20 via Diggins Hill to Lowell Hill Rd. It's been a while since I've been up there, but I'm thinking of checking out the route in my Jeep while checking in on my wife's & my property up that way. The wife says there are ditches & ruts along the road, but I'm not sure because we usually just go in and out via Dutch Flat and don't take Lowell Hill all the way through... and we usually take a Suburban.

went out exploring a little around the shingle springs area last night. i went down pandorosa rd. and connected to lotus. went down some crazy little roads off that. so much fun!! if you get far enough back in the hills there are some small as roads that are a blasty blast to jam on. true rally material. subaru country for sure. and at the end of some road named jacks eighty it turned into dirt and i ran into a creek but i was to scared to cross it because i didnt know how deep it was and it was pitch black and pouring. also went on a cool little road named Thompson hill. there is a fallen down tree every few 100 feet so its extra fun weaving in and out of them and than one hair pin after another
i have not been up to dutch flat or forest hill yet but thats next if anyone wants to go explorin let me know. i can do it all day!
