    We team drove. Otherwise never would have made it.

    You talking about Snowbird Hill? That one that's 8 miles at 7% ?

    That big ### grade coming down on 95 that drops u into lewiston. That's the only pass I have yet to chain up on in the NW. It is one hell of a climb going up fully loaded

    That hill has like 5 escape pits. Signs that say
    " Truckers: No Fine For Using Emergency Ramp."

    You lose it on that hill you're in a world of hurt.
