away from the Fire Station. Used emergency brakes to the junction. A bit dicey. Fourth of July. No help available
Headed south and found a NAPA sign to refresh brake fluid. Cancelled Sonora Pass and went north to cut across to Lake Tahoe.
Never made it to Sonora but have some good stories in that area.
Always read your posts about weather.
