I drove 60 mins north up the Grapevine and there in Frazier Park, kids playing the snow and trying to sled while their parents snapped pictures. 40 degrees at 2 PM. Then took a new shortcut road from the 138 towards Lake Hughes and didn't believe the "Ice" signs until I hit spot after spot after spot of ice/hardpack/slush mixes. Stopped once in the middle of a patch to see how the car would handle starting up again - the traction control had to scramble for a while but it took. Still scary to come up on one of those patches at speed because you dare not brake.
Oh, and what a joy to have turbonium under the hood up the grade, as everyone else who started out so bravely started falling away. 80 MPH up a long steep hill, oh what a feeling.
