That rim will dig, it'll turn like it's on rails. Cops probably pulled them over to say thank you for not running summer tires.Quote:

Just came across these webcams/status for Loveland, Berthoud, etc.
https://www.islovelandpassopen.com
The answer is easy these days: Has there been more than 2" of snow in the last 24 hours? If yes, then the pass is closed. If no, then carry on.Quote:

There was also a decent fender bender on my way down. Some car was facing down into the ravine but luckily a tree stopped it. Slick out there this am, and pretty cold.
Or even simpler ... If month > 10 and month < 6, pass-status = "closed".Quote:

I still remember one drive - not because of traction, but rather visibility. Visibility was around 15-20 feet (driving it at 5mph and white-knuckling).
A webcam check might have been useful. Still gotta use your smarts ;-)
My buddy drove up about a half hour behind me and he used his GPS (not phone GPS) to help him figure out where the road was.

I don't know where else to put this but be sure to catch the new AFW commercial where Jake Jabbs shows up in a DeLorean - complete with burning tire tracks and says something about prices that make you think you've gone "back in time"... LOL>
Was headin back down from the basin yesterday and was wondering if he still did commercials.Quote:

Solid first post. Tell us you have go-pro footie.Quote:

What is it with people thinking that they all should be in the left lane when it snows? Passed 100 cars on the right this am. Not trying to be a dick here folks, but there's two fucking lanes yo!
Don't spoil it man. Right lane is the secret to I70.
My granite sat on 70 for three hrs this morning. Had four people sitting around doing nothing waiting. Cost me Six Hundred Dollars. Who do I send the bill to? Cdot? Or the owners of bald tire cars?

If you find out, let me know. I have 2300 lbs of grain still sitting out there.Quote:
