    Not a chance. Be safe if you decide to head up there.

    Oops, I thought it was closer. Looks like it's pretty far from me, I'm going to play in the snow closer to home tomorrow. If we get the expected snow even Switzerland should turn challenging.

    I went up to the Old Flowers Road via Rist Canyon (heads west from Bellvue CO). Plow grader and truck were tag-teaming the road. It was just over one lane wide when I encountered them the first time. A snowmobile was traveling the road - it was well deep enough with new snow from the plow's first visit. Deer were on the road / snow was too deep off of the road and they wanted easy walking. Before leaving town, I trekked the un-plowed park near me - no issues. My parking lot and roads near me - no issues. Front diff just barely skimmed the snow. Rear did left a divot - but not up to the axles. I did a rural county road that didn't see any traffic and I had no issues - but it was deep.

    `had some fun / got out - now for some pictures. Clouds are lightening up / getting a hint that sun is not distant - then the plowed roads will really melt.
