    It was!!! Only had one sketchy moment, but Andrews quick thinking saved the day. (Hint. Even if your tow strap is a solid block of ice. Bring it!!!!)
    Sad to say, but your long bed would have never made it. :(

    And we went by the Camphround yesterday. Sadly, there will be no tree/Mechanical bull rides this year. :(
    But, we'll have plenty of fire wood! So somebody bring a splitting maul :)

    As it turns out, in a pinch you can use a ratchet strap as a tow strap :cool:

    We were able to get close enough to double the strap back 4 times, so it wasn't sketchy at all :)

    My good friend Derrick speaks the truth. Alex's DCSB didn't make this off-camber, ice covered, hairpin corner on a shelf road with a 20 foot drop into a snow filled wash; he slid sideways and a boulder stopped him from going over the edge. This was when we used the ratchet strap for recovery purposes. The LBs would have ended up upside down in the snowdrift at the bottom.
