The road runs pretty much due north for some distance, paralleling the mountain range, until it reaches the spot where it can cross to the other side. This, again, is a wind swept spot where the surface is exposed. This gave us an idea of what it would be like to drive in summer - the answer is nowhere near as smooth - the snow fills in all the bumps quite nicely.

This gives a good impression of how the blowing snow can quickly close the road - we started bottoming out on this quite often in places - but never enough to really impeed progress. Wouldn't take much of this for us to be unable to get through though.

This is where the road enters the mountains - note it climbing towards the pass in the distance.
