But if you're going to do that in the winter, make sure you take the right road.

It's pretty easy to stick with 199 through Grants Pass, and in reality, the coast route is probably less likely to get snow than I5, which has a number of reasonably high passes near the Oregon border. The road those guys took was just asking for trouble at that time of year:-/

Damn that sucks. I was expecting to read a Donner party-like situation but this was 2006!
