A few years back the wife and I drove up Mt Evans, highest paved road in the country. 14,100 ft. We used to drive up it annually when me and some buddies went out to watch the NHRA mile high nationals near Denver. When the wife and I went there were bicycles all up and down the mountain. Adding just a little more hazard to an already “hairy and nerve wracking drive” but totally worth it when you get to the top. I actually gained quite a bit of respect for the cycling enthusiasts that can pull that off. One guy had us take his picture while holding his bike in front of the sign.
Yeah, I could imagine. When I went with the wife I couldn’t believe how busy it was compared to the previous trips. And that’s probably been ten-ish years
Um yeah some roadsigns I don't see around home. There was also elk crossing signs that didn't come out
You need to get outta Akron more...those cow crossing signs arent that rare out in the country...probably right about the mountain goat one though!
They're around in Wayne n Holmes for sure! Of course Wayne county is, or at least has been, the top milk producer in Ohio, so...
Cool pic! As Sandhillbilly said not far from me at all. When I was a teenager and in my early 20’s I used to snowboard down Loveland Pass all the time. There’s a spot in the winter (after you get off I-70 at the Loveland Pass exit) where skiers and snowboarders gather. Random people in trucks and vans will stop and let you ride to the top of the pass and drop you at the top. Then you strap in and bomb down the mountain from the top. It’s a blast! You do have to watch for trees as you get closer to the bottom though. I also frequently drive Loveland Pass in the winter to get to Keystone and Arapahoe Basin. I always let the skiers and boarders pile into the back of my truck on the way up. It’s kind of a right of passage in Colorado. Good times!
