I am interested. I am an early riser and like to get an early start. This gives me more time to drink beer and wash the mud off the beast.
I was up there on 2/2 and we saw a spot pretty early on the run that had suffered a lot of errosion and was leading some folks to take a pretty difficult by-pass to get around. I am not sure, but I doubt it has gotten any better with the rain since then.
We got shut down on 2/2 due to deep snow that had turned to ice very close to the top and had to turn back pretty late in the afternoon.
final plans...Sunday March 2nd meet at the Bass Pro Shop near victoria gardens, near the main enterence, off of the 15fwy at 6am. we will drive out at 6:30. bring food to cook for breakfast if you want. sorry, its no longer a sunrise run but its still freakin early.
let me know if you have any questions.

so who's goin with us? we should be able to bypass most of the bad stuff, if you dont want to bypass it then be my guest to give it a try. Ive been told this should no longer be called a "beginer" trail due to the recent changes in trail conditions. on a normal day my open diff 4x2 can make it up most of the "harder stuff" (not 4x4 hard, 4x2 hard) with no problems. I suspect that if snow and mud are present I wont even try the hard stuff.

i MIGHT go... .. that is mega early.. id have to get up at 5am or 4:30 :-/

ya, but its like LBCAFJ said, gives you more time in the day to do other stuff like wash your rig and drink beer, or get back to San Diego like I have to.
So were cooking breakfast at the top?
