We switched to 4wd when we left the campground and drove less the 5mph for the next 150 miles. Semis were spinning their tires and stopping, we saw a bumper pull trailer on it's side and countless cars and trucks in the ditch. We never spun our wheels or felt out of control the whole dive. So if you travel where it snows, don't leave home without it!

Must have been really wet snow!

We got caught coming home from the coast one February, 5er in tow, dropped into 4X4 and did about 45 over the coast range.
