^^^ Avoid "ice on the summit" too

.
My buddy & I were in shorts and t-shirts at the lake on the way up & across... met a VERY few 4x4s as we approached the summit.... we could not make it ... about 3 miles shy

. It was sorta scary skating back down a few miles ... we had to "go around" ... added hours to our trip.
Fun, fun, fun roads for sure .... and the views awesome too!
