I'm thinking the first day we could see the area around WP 125 The second day around WP 105
But we can go anywhere the group feels like going.

I'm gonna do Best Western. Free high speed internet and price is cheaper with my AAA card. 
Also Mike / Grasscat will be joining us on this trip. He just hadn't decided until today.

Well both of my young Sons are going, so I guess I need to keep an eye on them.

Weather in NW Nevada will be clear but cold .
Checked weather.com and based it on the forecasts for Fernley NV & Winnemucca NV (north and southern area of where we're wheeling).
Just a very slight chance of rain from the south (<10%).
Temps will be highs of 38-44*f (3 to 7* celcius) and lows of 10-19*f (-12 to -7* celcius).
Fernley 20% chance of rain for Friday 10% for Saturday. Clear on Sunday 42/18* on Sat 44/19* on Sun
Winnemucca Clear Friday/Sat/Sun 37/10* on Sat BRRRRR.... 41/11* on Sun A little warmer but def not T-Shirt weather.
Bring your warm stuff. It WILL NOT BE a good time for shorts and tank tops. 
BUT, on the trip there and back expect snow/rain on the roads...
FRIDAY: Truckee forecast indicates it is very likely (60%) it will be raining/snowing Friday Night with temps @ 15-33*f... SUNDAY: Truckee forecast indicates 50% chance of snow/rain with temps ranging from 17-37*f...
