Driveway Conditions at the Wagner Farm

Judging from the quality and frequency of his emails, Van is really excited about the Elk Toss this year. Here's another great one, which will also help you in getting to the top of the driveway at the Wagner Farm:

"My front wheel drive Saturn has been fine...but people CAN NOT STOP HALFWAY UP TO SMELL THE ROSES AND THEN TRY TO GO AGAIN. My driveway is like a marriage, you have to commit. Like a marriage, there is ice, there are ditches, it is wet is places, you'll have arguments about drinking, you have push on because at the end is a glorious mountain top with space and sunshine."

What he is trying to say is that there is some snow and ice on the driveway and it is uphill, although it has been improving over the past few days without new snow. 4WD vehicles will help, but the key is to maintain a steady pace on the hill. Do not be scared. The driveway should be in much better conditions than the past few years.

Oh, and when you get to the top of the hill, parking is limited, so try to carpool as much as possible.
