I was coming back from visiting the parents and they had shut down the highway due to blowing snow.  Naturally, I tried to go the back road method to bypass the closure.

So for those of you who haven't driven in near zero visabilty here you go.  Speeds are around 30km/hr (18MPH) and there is no audio. You can bump up the resolution as Youtube starts it at 360p.
Grid road near whiteout 18 Feb 13.avi

That didn't work out and I had to try another way, which got me back on the highway.  The highway wasn't as bad as the grid roads were.

I lived for 20 some odd years in southern Wyoming.  That is what the roads looked like most of the winter after a snow storm.  The dry snow would blow for 3-4 days till it wore itself out.  Drove lots of miles from reflector post to reflector post. 

Glad I live in Southern Oregon now.  Snow falls and stays in one place. ;D ;D ;D
