It was absolutely jarring, and also scary as hell. I made that drive again some years later but was prepared for it that time - I think that time was it was June, and it was still horrible winter conditions. Does that place ever have nice weather? Shit.

Yep. In the winter, once you get up to the Ike Tunnel you are up in the shit. And of course, good ol’ vail pass
