Mountain High is a ski resort a couple hours north of here. Costa Mesa is by the ocean. I don't think it's ever snowed here.

Assuming it's 4wd, with good snow tires (or M/T), chains and lockers front and rear.

 

My 4WD Suburban with rear locker and new ATs went through powder higher than the hood now problem until the radiator got blocked by packed snow up against the AC condenser and it started to overheat. Wet stuff takes a bit more traction.

SuperWade,

 

Very nice find on that Jan. 15, 1949 snow fall in Costa Mesa.

 

I was less than 1 year old then, but where I was (Scotland), snow was a normal thing. Glad to say I have lived in Southern California since I was 4 years old. Never could get my mom and dad to take me to Big Bear for the snow. My dad said he had seen enough snow (in Scotland) to last him a lifetime!!
