I did the S2S yesterday, 6am up (took about 2 hours) and 430pm down (took about 2.5 hrs).
Wasn't too bad since it was generally plowed, and then light snow over again. Lines don't exist anymore(for certain sections, mainly north of Squamish), everyone follows the plowed lanes, which sometimes cuts into the passing lane. Be careful when passing in the passing lane, as it's usually not plowed and people move into them without any notice.
On my way down last night, there was a section that was two lanes SB and one NB. I, along with a lot of other ppl were in the passing lane, and this guy going NB took our lane(not sure if he realized or not). Thankfully it was far enough down that everyone in the passing lane was able to merge to the right lane. The guy going NB finally passes the single lane NB traffic and then merges back to the proper lane, but he starts fish tailing in a large domestic SUV. He managed to get it under control, but it took two lane widths to do it. And all of us in the passing lane SB were smart enough to get out of it. Probably would have shut down the S2S for awhile.
