WTF!! Really!?!

 

Holy shit Brandon I’m glad youre ok!! Let me know if you need anything!!

 

I posted that earlier on my phone since I started getting texts.

That happened late Sunday, Tried to work some on Monday along with figure out what the heck happened. Ran down to the front range to pick up the land cruiser since I dont have anything that can get up there. Got up there this morning after getting the fucker stuck... I was not thrilled at all. After I figured out how to activate the lockers it wasn't bad but still took some snow bashing. The snow drifts are decent in a couple spots but not bad. Even the short time I was up there, it was drifted to the point that I couldn't tell that I had been through only an hour before.

This is what it looks like.



I keep looking for stuff... realizing it was in the truck. Like my keys that I keep feeling for in my pocket. I was hoping it would've stopped and spared some parts but no dice. The Factor55 did survive, actually the winch and most of the rope doesnt look bad at all!


Priority is to get it down before the snow.

I reached out to Colorado 4x4 Rescue and Recovery. But long story short... I dont need this to be a political, "let me ask the board of directors", we want to make this into a huge deal, multi day, lets rig up some stuff instead of putting it on a trailer, CYA event so I think I've decided to do it without them. I have the cruiser which is winched, locked and 35s. I also have a power wagon with a trailer, so one or two more winched rigs and I think it'll be a cake walk. Looking like we're looking to get it done on Sunday to not interfere with the relaxing holiday. Weather is looking great through the weekend and I'll probably bash my way up there a few times before then to make sure its open.

 

I am free sat and sun if you need help!

 

I could probably help this weekend too

 

I should be back in town Sunday morning so I can help Sunday

 

Best use of winch I have seen this year. Notice @Star-Lord what can be achieved with a factor55

Thanks for the support and interest in helping. I'll post up some details when I figure it out. But probably wont be too early so front range peeps wont have to be up at the crack of dawn, but we'll see.

 

No worries on that, Asher probably would only make it worse.

 

That's mo' betta'! First thing I unpacked, scotch and scotch glasses...paired with sea salt boulder chips

 

In!

 

I'm Locked with a winch and down to help out. So sorry to hear about it man, glad you're alright

 

Is that cuz you keep getting older and the women at the bar stay the same age or...

 

That sucks

 

No doubt. Never had seat heaters in my 27 years of driving... not about to hook up the Subaru seat heaters in my seats now.

 

I use them on my Subaru every day, but they automatically turn off after about 15 minutes.

 

They worked fine.. think it was mainly the length of time. OEM and more expensive ones probably turn off automatically after a certain amount of time.
