The only problem we ran into, my mother and I, was snow going through the Summit and on top of Cabbage Hill. Once we got off the mountain things warmed up and it was smooth sailing the rest of the drive home. For those of you that have no idea what I am talking about, between Washington and Utah (if you're going through Boise, ID) there are three passes you go through. The mountains those passes are in are called The Blues. I'd tell you all the names of the passes but I don't know them. The first main hill is called Cabbage Hill (when you're traveling southeast), it winds you up and into the Mountains. The Summit is the first break between passes but is notorious for getting the most snow. There is a lot of steep hills, even more truckers, and it gets a little scary when the truckers have to chain up. The last time I went through those passes during winter was when I had a kidney stone and I actually spewed on the side of the road about 5 times. Ever spewed in the snow before? I found it rather entertaining, after we stopped in Ontario, Oregon at the ER. :)
Great Times!
Hope your day goes well!
