My wife went to school in Ashland and I went across the mts in Klamath Falls. Cahined up more than once to get her back to the SOC Dorms and then I headed back across the mts still klanking away. Been up that nig one I-5 a couple times on Coors Beer runs. Oregon didn't sell Coors kegs at the time so I'd run to the border for some of the keggers. What a life, if the Dowco cover is warranted like the Motorhome ones, they should replace it. My brother had one destruct on a class C sorted here and time will tell if the one on the class A version he chauffers now will hold up. Snowing here also, kinda like winter.
Good luck job hunting in the forthcoming weeks. Max in Moses Lake.
Ah, so you're familiar with this area then...during your learning years
It was interesting. We went through this in the Mt. Shasta area....without chains.
To get to this before Yreka, CA. What a view!
And then you've seen this too....
And this....
And you really know this one....
Which all this was just fun and games, until I saw the sign that said "6% grade, Next 7 Miles". That's when I knew that I wasn't in "Kansas anymore". That worked out to be about a 1/2 mile elevation change. And I gotta tell ya, that trailer was pushing my truck hard. I had no idea how high the uphill climb was going to be, or how much snow was at the summit. I could not take pictures or go faster than 15 mph on the downhill grade. It was intense...along with all the traffic....vehicles were getting stuck everywhere, but I'm proud to say that the couple from North Carolina made it.
Today is the final leg of 3400 miles.
Later, Savages!
