A little off subject. What PopBeavers said is worth noting. Today we were coming back from a hike on Ebbetts Pass Hwy 4 in California. Driving our little car and a couple driving a 30 foot or more class A motor home was just starting up the pass. I doubt he made it. The road is only a lane and half wide. No center line. There are grades exceeding I would guess 10% with hair pin curves. The peak of the pass is 8,500 feet. It is a lot worse than Sonora Pass.

It is always a good idea to check with locals before you attempt a high mountain pass that you are not familiar with and that is not a major highway.
