in Nsnow, Snow
4ft+ of snow finally coming to Tahoe, after so little for so long, finally! It was time to go.
The snow line wasn't too low when I started driving up, except for a bit of surprise slush when I was passing a truck. Thankfully my tesla stability control, did the right thing:
The tesla estimator has been very wrong, on the trip out, it told me I'd arrive with 14%, but I arrived with 5% while driving quite slow and taking an unsafe road (the safe road around would not have gotten me there with enough battery left):
strangely, the road was quite clear higher up (localized snowfalls)
Carson Spur was still in very good shape

estimator went from 14% to 9% to 5% by the time I arrived
thankfully it stabilized at 5%
on the plus side, the new superchargers are fast, I got back to 80% in 30mn
