    Saturday, 5th They start down the mountain only to be stopped by CalTrans. Chains are required for the next 10 miles. "No problem!" Monkey tells everyone. "We've got them right here," he pulls the box out from under his seat. "And I'm virtually a 'Chain Monkey!'" Note: Opice's right. The nickname for people who install chains on cars going over the Sierra is, in fact, CHAIN MONKEY.  |
