You know who can drive in those conditions, big rig drivers. They haul ass in those mountain passes. I remember driving across Canada from BC to Calgary back in my college days. This was my first time driving in really cold climate like it. I have done many TAhoe or Mammoth ski trips with my little 4WD Toyota truck but driving in that slippery stuff in the colder constant sub zero temp is something else. Big trucks flew by us in both directions throwing snow into our windshield momentary blinding us. Good times
