    Chaining doesn't bother me much. Closed roads are my big worry -- we haul live fish, we gotta roll.....

    The way they've been throwing the "closed" sign up lately, don't really know what's going to keep us rolling.

    True that. That certainly changes some routing. 84 has been open/closed the last few days, Snoqualmie, not so much unless you're on the east bound side.

    CA and certainly Nevada. Nevada is looking like a storm will hit tonight through Tuesday.

    Snoqualmie WB doesn't close easily, except when they get a bunch of snow and they close it for avalanche control. They predict 8-12" on top, so that becomes a real possibility.

    And here we go again! Siskiyou North and South: Chains required all vehicles, traction tires alone are not sufficient. It's never going to stop snowing!!

    Karma is a bee-atch. I seem to remember you teasing others recently about you being on some beach down in Florida
