You wouldn’t think you would climb that high going from Port Renfrew to Lake Cowichan on Vancouver Island but, apparently, you do…

At the summit there was a 1/2” of slush on the road.  Never froze though, whew.

Beautiful scenery! Thankfully, it didn't seem to be snowing heavily!

I was driving down Pikes Peak in July in my car when it was "new" and it started to snow. I found it was a bad car to drive in the snow. The windshield wipers weren't strong enough to push the snow off the windshield and the snow collected on the engine cover so I couldn't see out the rear window! Thankfully, the people behind me were very patient!
