    That is right, you are in sinclair wyoming.

    You will wait, or go around, to the south into colorado and chain laws over the passes, or north to casper wy, and down I25 to denver. Temperature has warmed here in casper, and they have the highways passable.

    I've got two cops blocking off eastbound to take 287. Boss man says no go for back tracking to 789 to head south. I can't blame him though I got stuck on 140 across Oregon outside lake view so playing it safe. Luckily a Good Samaritan had a horse of a dually and the plow driver jumped in front to to lay sand

    Well, if YOU own the truck and trailer, it's your call. If you just drive for someone else, i'd let them make the call.

    Well I80 across wyoming is open in both directions for the moment. Sure would not want to be driving in a pack, with less then 2000 ft visibility, and 40 mph winds. But it is open currently. Current conditions at arlington wy.

    It's because when the wind blows from the southwest like it usually does, it causes drifts and ice on the eastbound lanes to a greater extent than on the west side

    Westbound is now closed as well at the 310 in Laramie. They closed it right in front of me! I pulled into the Pilot and actually got a spot! Good times! image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg
