For those of you that are already there or live up in pismo. How is the river looking this week at low tide?
i know how it has been in the past and how it can be, I am just looking for a current real update on how it is going to be when I get there in my little car this year.

have your reg #'s and current registration handy. who doesent register their skis anyways? its like 20$ or less

just checked the weather and its supose to rain/thunderstorm wed. is that gonna make the river crossing a problem?

There number one issue at pismo seems to be just safty. Along the beach the speed limit is 15mph and last year they came by because the fire got real big and they asked everyone to keep it a little smaller but regardless we have all seen what happens when you get a cop in a bad mood with a ski that doesn't match the requirements perfectly.

thanks for the advice broseph...

i was just saying i wouldnt not go because your ski isnt registered...at pismo they have way more important things to worry about...like i said ive been riding there 100s of times over the last 6years without a problem..just dont draw attention to yourself

Key words "don't draw attention to yourself"

I have not been down the beach that way in a while but I would say there will be very little to no creek crossing. Should be able to get across (if the creek is flowing) no problem in any type of vehicle. And remember speed is your vehicles enemy when crossing water! Slow and steady!

I wasn't asking because I am worried about getting stuck, I am a very experience on and off road driver. I was asking because if I go up I will be driving my nicer low car and have no desire to drive it through salt water.
