FYI – Just read the news that the plow company said enough is enough and they are no longer keeping the road open. 12-18″ of snow on the ground and high winds make things very difficult even when charging $250 for a road pass.

Theyve been battling lots of cracks and were in the process of rerouting, but yeah, there is a reason there hasnt been a road to the angle across the lake. Last year was pure desperation due to closed borders, but now or any normal year its not cost effective to maintain and just break equipment.
