The Columbia River George can be some of the most treacherous driving conditions you'll ever find. +/- 20 years ago when I was a much younger and less experience driver (probably about 25 years old) I was heading through Cabbage Hill in the ice storm at night. Heading west up the hill I probably passed 15 18-wheelers that were crawling along. So, I crest the top and start heading down and it's just flat out scary.... problem was, now all of the trucks that I passed are now barreling down behind me.....no slowing down or stopping unless I was to be a splatter mark on the pavement! That night I learned when to stay home.... and I learned that truckers have no fear!
