The scenery was spectacular to say the least. I was a little nervous at first driving the IS up there, but surprisingly it was a smooth drive. Better road conditions than LA freeways thats for sure.

beautiful pics sorry for not knowing but why is it so bad to take a lowered car in snow? sorry from florida and ive never driven a car in snow. 7 tons and Humvee are all i know with driveing in the snow. theres a snow buttom doesnt that make it safe to drive in snow since it keeps ur RPMS low?

^ For me mainly dragging rocks with my exhaust on snowy dirt roads. Where I went, there was a good amount of off road driving and unevenly level roads.
