    That one is pretty scary when it's been snowing. I had a religious experience on 303 one morning!

    I grew up near there 10 minutes away in hudson. The hill in question, while steep, is rather short and straight, the only way it could create a problem is if a fool wasn't paying attention and looking out for cars coming to a so at the bottom.

    Log haulers know about grades. Like when you have to tie to your front bunk and put on a strip chain and still have to get towed up the spur to the haul road? Oh yeah. ;)

    New testament. After the crucifixion Paul was on the road to Damascus and Jesus appeared to him and took his sight.

    Paul, the persecutor of jesus and his followers become a devoted disciple.
