One false move, and I would have gone over a cliff, for certain. But I successfully made it to Wrightwood, over the snow and ice. Then I had lunch. Then I came home. Dodging sniper fire on the way back, of course. Ho hum. Unlike Hillary, I got a few shots in, and saw a Crown Vic careening into a ravine. Think I just hit the tire, though.
