Not being cold enough to drive the people that moved here in the summer back to where they came from. We have a lot of people that move here from California and last maybe 2-3 winters before they decide it is too cold for them.

Well that's just perfect... I am due to take the Greyhound to Denver for orientation Saturday and it goes directly from the NW down to Salt Lake and across Wyoming (I-80) down into Denver.Last edited: Nov 12, 2015

Tarping a load with frozen tarps in 10-degree weather with ice everywhere. Yep, flatbedding where it gets -20 is truly NOT a fun time.
Also Chaining and unchaining 5 separate times in 200 miles. Yep, that stinks. Winter is when you hate driving truck. Spring, summer and fall it's all unicorns and lolipops.bottomdumpin Thanks this. -
Surprise surprise...you are heading west on I-80 in Wyoming and you're coming around the bend and low and behold there is a truck park on the shoulder facing east. Holy crap batman...how did he do that?

Just did a round trip sac to Utah and back. Chained up over donner and first 50 miles into Nevada were horrible roads were covered cars were spinning out..... I was loving it unfortunately what I,hate about winter is sharing the road and blowing snow on elk mountain and under 10klbs in 65mph gusts other than that winter driving is nice.

I will sit and wait it out before I chain up and go through Donner pass. Screw that!
