If this amount of snow fell on Central Okanagan in a 24 or even 48hr period of time, skip driving anywhere unless you have snowmobile. Like I said earlier we tend shutdown in 30cm/12".

Any amount of snow means the atv comes out.

Question: Why does the Coquihalla summit almost always get so much more snow than Allison Pass?

P.S. Very cold this morning -11C at my place in the north Okanagan! Yesterday morning was +2C in the morning.

I don't know. Elevation? Direction/intensity of cold front?
