I just got back from a 3 day camping/fishing trip to Taylor Park CO. I did about 5 mph over the limit the entire trip there and back but slowed a bit over Cottonwood Pass which has a few spots over 10% grade. On the way there over the pass, I was passed by a V-10 Ford Super Duty pulling a 5th wheel
It sounded like it was bouncing off the rev limiter the entire way up. People were driving like bats out of a heell!! If anything, I'd say people drive faster now that gas seems to be permanently around 3 bucks a gallon. UNBELIEVABLE! What will it take for people to change their driving habits??? 10 bucks a gallon!
On the bright side, we saw 2 moose and.........................a WOLVERINE!!! Just about at the top of the pass coming back today, a wolverine lept over the side of the road in front of us and flew up the side of the pass. Many biologists and such think they are still extinct in Colorado.
