Last view from the car window of Dexter Lake.

We suddenly hit bad weather on the pass

W. is trying to get the windows clean so we could at least see a bit. That didn't last long.

Winter wonderland

White knuckle driving

We could not see much and were grateful for the large snow truck that was driving in front of us so we could follow it's tracks.

Lots of snow in a very short.

It's getting better!

And all of a sudden the bad weather stopped! And it is a gorgeous fall afternoon again!

Last pit stop before Klamath Falls. This is at the truck stop.
