It was fine. The usual occasional ladybug that's pretty common in that area. I was in late and out early. At check- in the guy was pretty nice but honestly, if a guy is checking in after 9 pm he's probably not looking for a long conversation. I just wanted to go to get some sleep. Not complaining, it's just a "read the room" opportunity. If you're pulling a trailer or in a big truck like I was, know that the place is at the top of a substantial hill. It wasn't a problem for me but if you're barely getting around or it's slick out, you might not make it.
