    Hey guys, I have always been wanting an answer to this, I am talking about regular roads with a reputation to be tricky to get through. Im not asking about ice roads though!

    Ca 152 and Ca 86 Expressway.Parts of 152 is a narrow 2 lanes with several fruit and veggie stands and Ca86 you have a lot drunks or people who misjudge how fast T/T's are going when they turn on the road. Also rural 2 lane roads can be dangerous due to being narrow or drunks.

    Going from my experience, I'd have to say the Adirondack Park in the dead of winter in the heart of a blizzard

    Same here, I always said. If I ever get out east on the HD. I will travel that hwy. Absolutely beautiful country through there.     Nice little towns along the way.

    Sure... not much different from some of the other goat trails (aka approved truck routes) in this country. Just 'cause it's highlighted in orange in the Rand McNally Motorcarriers Atlas doesn't mean its safe to run a rig with a 53' trailer!
