lmao at the retards that are standing in the middle of the damn road. they should be run over by an out of control car for being that stupid.

heaven for bid someone goes up there and parks their car across the road....

 

Man thats a complete disaster. That road must have been a solid sheet of ice if thoes big 4x4s couldnt go up. People defanitly should have blocked off the top and bottom. That was a crazy video.

 

Holy shit....I'm home for break now, but I go to CC, and its surprising when the roads get bad there, last week when it was all foggy, the precip was freezing up on the roads (like freezing rain..but it wasn't raining) and things were deceivingly sketch

 

Started snowing around 130pm, roads were a sheet of ice by 330pm on my way home from work.

 

yea it was a trip. I pulled 12 vehicles outta the ditch on the way home to include a 30 foot U haul. I saw a stock 1st gen pull a insanley lifted f350 on 35 supper swampers up 115. Tried to get a pic put it didnt turn out. The taco earned her money, made over 350 bucks during the night pulling out people who should of stayed hom

 

dam!!!! im glad i wasnt there!!!!!!!!!!

 

Thats the thing man, it was slick, but with the exception of a few roads ( like carefree) it wasnt bad. Alot of sports cars and people stopping on hills caused the problems. I slipped a little but for like 4 hours was driving all around town cutting through steep medians to get a good pull angle to tug people out with no problem. Most of it was poor vehicles (Rear wheel drives or low profile tires) would slip on a hill then all other vehicles would get stuck. But all in all all the roads were navigable with careful driving and COMMON SENSE

 

This is why I live in so Ca.

 

no 14000 foot peaks in so cal. No backcountry boarding in Socal. No Vail snow bunnies from austraila in So Cal. Ill put up with slippery roads for the benifits of COLORADO

 

im moving out there the second i get a chance

 

I just saw you sold your video to Channel 4 news.......Just out of curiousity how much did you make off of the sale???
