AWESOME! I once drove a Geo Metro up a similar road up near Cameron Pass. I worked for a storage barn construction company at the time and we were hired to build a cabin for a company called (I think this is their name anyway, it was years ago) Nordick Adventures. They're a system of yurts and cabins that people can hike to or snowshoe to in the winter. It was really cool because it wasn't really like working, it was kinda like a glorified camping trip that I got paid for! Four-wheeling in non four-wheel-drive vehicles, should be an actual sport! What's the challenge in four-wheeling with a four-wheel-drive vehicle anyway? Pshhh

@bsquared - Bryan!!! That is sweet. I am happy that you are moved in and drinking wine. That is the best part of moving in. I will look forward to seeing those pictures in the near future. I love that you are harassing me about my driving from 2,000 miles away. Sweet!

@Theresa - Theoretically. I never saw anyone get pulled over for speading.. but I tried to keep it under 140 kilometers per hour. That is not so bad because there are always cars flying past me like I am standing still. Seriously.

Do they let you drive as fast was you want to? I’m glad that I was not in that car. Even if it meant being with you guys.
