    looking like once i get near hoback, i'll be dealing with some mountain roads through the ID border...

    i'm fine with snowy twisty roads...just would suck if they closed down a road and i couldn't get through

    oh damn..just replied to your post in the ID thread Bob.

    Those roads can get bad in stroms. I80 is notorious for wind and ice.

    the other roads are smaller 2 lain roads and can get snowed in easy. But they plow them so shouldn't be impassible.

    i80 through WY is the first place i saw an 18wheeler almost tip over...had one side almost airborne it was so windy across the highway

    wish i had my amber LEDs already :(

    big thing would be closures...i'm used to blizzard mountain driving...it's white knuckled fun and slow as hell but as long as i can keep moving..

    if it gets nasty north of i80 i could always continue west and head north through Montpelier, ID
