    This one shows the whole line pretty well, my ass end kicked out to the passenger side putting me on the slider.

    Enough to make it a lot of fun!
    @SilverGhost and I did an impromptu RT shake down on Yankee hill. We made it a good distance up and kept running into people turning around found out the trail turned into an off camber sheet of ice with a 2 foot deep trench on the passenger side. We decided it wasn't worth risking. There was an Xterra that got stuck up there over night.

    Hahaha that video! That water slows you down quit a bit. I was trying to get some air. At least that gave me a reason to wash the truck. It's all clean now.

    He begged us not to run Yankee Hill so he wouldn't have to suffer the embarrassment. (says the man with the stock taco who took the bypasses all day):D

    Better yet...over 2 minutes of video on my digital cam before it died.



    I cheated this time. I purposely stayed in the back of the group and let everyone else blaze the trails. Someone must have photos of @Reh5108 attempting to make tracks in the snow drifts after the sign for Bill Moore...

    @Reh5108 coming down the end of Bard Creek



    @BerettaMato


    also...for those of you that heard me @Reh5108 and I compare the end of Bard Creek to "Brake Check" at Rausch Creek in PA...here's what we were referring to:

    Brake check is legit scary. I was there when that video was filmed and it doesn't do justice to how steep it is going down into it. Here's another video of the truck that went next (driven by @PSU Taco85 ). You can sorta see me standing at the top of the hill with my wife:

    That ledge isn't all that steep. There's an optional obstacle on Poison Spider that's easily the steepest thing I've driven down. I tried going up this but dug my rear bumper in way before I was close to getting the rear tires to the wall:
