It is a tough area to access in a truck once the snow hits, and John Brown canyon might be at the top of my list of roads to avoid in Utah once there is snow on the ground. Sounds like you had a great season otherwise, and lessons learned for next time.

Future johnnycake, past johnnycake, and present johnnycake all feel this way?

That must be some place!

We are all in agreement. Past johnnycake has done enough seriously sketchy drives in adverse weather on that road to know future johnnycake's luck has certainly run out.

I wouldn't be shocked if "he" is actually a character being shopped for a new movie or something. Probably a screenwriter trying to figure out how far to push the limits of believable. It would appear they chose the wrong forum if they want to find an upper limit of crazy.

Challenge accepted

John Brown is the exact area I was trying to get into initially. That didn't happen. Snow was 18 in-2 ft at only 6000 ft. No way I was getting in there without a snow machine.

I figured that was it. And yeah, if you were dealing with that at only 6k feet, you would have had had drifts at the top of the canyon that no chains in the world would've let your truck get through. Assuming you didn't get royally fu...dged on the switchbacks.

When it comes to chains, I’m more of the school you use them to get you OUT of trouble, not IN to trouble.

¿Por que no los dos?

You know I don’t speak French!

Claro que sim, por que você é burro de mais filho.
