    Pretty much where it first opens up headed towards town. He had pasture over the hill on the south side and hay ground next to the highway near his house.
    I was by there last year looking at a job. It’s changed a bit since 1974, but not too much yet. Other than the jersey barrier and some asphalt patching, the grade is pretty much the same.

    On a different topic, you could always tell what time of day it was by how fast the forest service vehicles were traveling on that road. Morning they were slower than molasses, but don't get in there way come quitting time!

    Fun fact about Harpster Grade: Cliff had a guy wreck a truck going up the hill in the first hard corner to the left. He didn’t want to lose momentum and learned you don’t lean into a 25mph corner at 35. Stuck it right into the rock wall.

    If you call yours a half ### tarp job, what’s this?
    It was flapping something terrible when I passed him.

    Dumb question, but is it normal for greasy bar to be stacked that high? I've only done a few loads of it, but for me it was always just one layer.
