    Ranged from 12" average to ~18"? in the deeper spots I think

    Fairly sticky snow, so not super sketch. Visibility sucked a little here. Was more sketch coming back over Snoqualmie pass just because of all the noob drivers and almost zero visibility

    Word, I'm an offroad novice as it is, but especially in the snow.

    I went over 90 last year and must have been one of the last cars going thru before they shut it down. I was almost literally letting the car move at idle speed because the road was gone and visibility was nothing.

    I like when that happens. Best time to do donuts on the highway. I mean, how often can you say you did donuts on the highway. :D:burnrubber::notsure:

    We are planning to go to Tahuya State Park tomorrow and run the loop if we can get at least one other truck. Another TW member here is planning to go, but isn't certain. Anyone interested? If not, we will head out to the Pass and play in the snow :thumbsup:

    We would plan to meet at the Starbucks by Safeway at:

    Haha, I really wanted to but I haven't finished clearing for my tires and opted not to destroy them. I'm sure any donuts would've been an accident, it was awfully slick ;)

    Just noticed a bolt missing on the top hat on my passenger side coilover. When I looked closer it's actually broken.

    5lugger. I'd still send it. I wish they made a 4cly 4x4 DC. I'd buy one.

    1qt every 4000miles at once he hit 800k, that seems about about right.

    Almost looks like fire and brimstone on the other side of that ridge. Or, just typical Seattle drivers. :bananadead:

    I wanted to have stopped but the kids were getting rowdy and hungry. I did feel bad for you guys when I got halfway down i90. What a shit show that is for no reason. The RDX behind me was 2ft from my bumper, but delt with accordingly lol. The snow was perfect wheeling snow what a great day, next time stop and chat if ya can.

    Hey dude I'm rolling up with the family sledding and a fire up stampede tomorrow. Text me if you want to go, a fresh 4 inches

    Why do they close it? So the plows can clean up? I know about avalanche control.
