Impressive to watch the snow accumulation on the trucks on I-80 during the snow... #snow #donnerpass #CAwx

Many trucks at Hwy 80 going west at Old Ag Station

Interesting, the streetlight that is usually at Castle Peak is out now. Power outage? Or is the snow so heavy, it's no longer visible? Look at this person, driving into the whiteout. 😬 Hope they don't find them frozen like a human popsicle!

I'm amazed there is any traffic at Castle Peak at all in that blizzard. Doesn't looks like plows are running. 2/18/26 1952PT #donnerpass #CAwx #snow

Let's see what's going on at Donner Pass tonight.

Oh, look, a White Tesla has been stuck since 3:57pm. Still not towed, at least, still on the board. At least it's not on fire?

Oooh, I've never seen a Subaru with 4WD with chains spinning its tires before. I think high centered on snow. 00:38 into the clip. #DonnerPass #snow #CAwx

10 big rigs stuck up at Donner Pass. Camera there is currently covered with snow, so no photos. #DonnerPass #snow #CAwx

R6 OUT W/APROX 10 BIG RIGS STUCK

LOL CHP has just requested the local towing company in Truckee "start as many trucks as available". I guess it sucks, but I think they get overtime.

Okay, who names a bridge the "Rainbow Bridge" next to Donner Pass? 😬

(apparently a person hit when they were putting chains on their vehicle, and vehicle are sliding all over).
