Been there, done that. Had to buy 16 sets of chains once because they wouldn't let us out of Portland unless we could chain every axle.
Cabbage is not an easy one! Heading west with a fairly-large Pennske towing a car on the hauler - one would want to shift down before beginning the north-slope descent! A couple of hairy-curves splattered with a little white-stuff!
Every time I come to Oregon, I am surprised by the steepness of the terrain and how far above the valleys the mountains rise. Coming from the Rockies, I keep thinking of everywhere else as flat ... until I get there!
