Need some help about Donner's Pass. Been down pass several times in the past but, can't remember layout. Would appreciate any help as I'm doing a paper on proper decent on pass starting from breakcheck area.
Thanks in advance,

Don't get too cocky as you pass Colfax and head down into auburn. Especially on the weekends, the chp's are hidding on the onramps to the westbound side. You can't see them until it's too late. Basically, it's easy as anything during the summer. It's 40miles or so of downhill that level's off in some places and climbs in others. Just keep your jakes on, set it to the right gear and look at the beautiful mountains...

There's signs every step of the way telling you what to do
Like The Yooper said, the signs will tell you what to do.
This time of year, Donner isn't really any big deal; take it easy, a lot of up & downhill driving, watch your gears, watch your braking. It's not like the winding curves you'll find on The Cabbage.

If I was snowed in up there for the winter, I'd want a Big Ole FAT boy to live off of, not a skinny little waif like Paris Hilton!![]()
