Well I was thinking about spring as they say its the best time to travel on the GAH to get up there, summer being too insect prone. But figured I may hit a freak spring snow storm. Since you would have to go slow anyway you would think someone would have developed a very thin set of motorcycle chains. Just a bit insurance to get to the next shelter if caught. Maybe I will develop a motorcycle tent where the exhaust pipes stick outside and the heat from the engine keeps you warm.
