Re: “Panoramic view of Donner Summit from above CPRR Tunnel #6 with Donner Lake in the distance”
Question: why in Hades didn’t they eat fish from the nearby lake?
All frozen up? Couldn’t see the lake for all the snow? (”Wait, what? You mean there was a lake full of fish there all the time? Aww, man...Joe’s thigh tasted like crap...and I could’ve had fresh trout?!”)
No nefarious Global Warming in those days!
