Re: Crappy weather warning
SOme of the most challenging roads are the two "pikes" that lead into and out of Johnstown. A few years ago we had a military formal there. It ended at 2300 (1100 pm) and it was 43 degrees. We goofed off with the waitress for a little and when we left at 2330 it was snowing. With in the 20 minutes it took us to get to the pike (route 56 I beleive) it was closed with over a foot of snow. We sat at the bottom of the hill for about an hour before a local cop came back to all the guys with 4x4s and said we could try to make it up but if we got stuck there might not be a rescue until morning. I had a Jeep Comache then and I made it up but it was pretty exciting, stopped and pulled my friends blazer out more than once.
