Trucking over Donner Pass - Not for The Faint Hearted.

[@Earl-n9l]

I once unloaded in Sparks and had to go to Lodi, Ca. to pick up a load. It was really windy in Reno and by the time I got to Donner, it was blowing snow. I was empty and the roads were slippery. There was a CHP in front of me, I asked him how far until we hit rain. I told him I was empty and he said he would stayed with me until I got out of the snow. Pretty nice guy. Been over Donner, hundreds of times. There are worse ones out there.

I’d agree. It’s crazy how fast the weather changes up there
