well. was headed to central oregon. decided to take a rural route i know of
Forgot about it cresting at like 5800 feet elevation. out of 110 miles on this road. i got 25 miles from my destination and got stuck in 38 inchs of snow. high centered the msp and was completly alone. no cell service or anythang, tryed shoveling away the snow. even put chains on. to no avail it wouldnt budge.

4 hours later. Warm springs Fire and rescue fallowed my tracks up and towed me out. Told me that i still had 1500feet of elevation to climb and at the peak theres up to 5' of snow on the road.

never panic'd so fast in my life!
this just one day after they found james kims body. i was (shocked)

How the hell did they know you were up there? Glad you made it out OK. Be more careful, OK? :)
