I've gone many times, not sure if I can make this year since I just started at a new jobsite and am working 12hr days with a hr commute each direction.

Does anyone know how far up the hill it has been ruined (paved)?

I have only gone there once, back in the 70's

Unser won. Tons of dust. And one minute it was hotter than hell and an hour later it was snowing.

Just think though, once its all paved, Formula cars will be able to go up it. :rockon::rockon:

And yes, the temp difference between sun and shade at 10,000ft + is insane.
