    I saw your "memory" on FB the other day with your old jeep being stuck. Not going to lie, I laughed a bit to myself picturing you cussing at yourself being buried that deep lol.

    Trail Report:

    Had fun yesterday. Ended up being a 12 hour day from house to trail and back home again. Thankfully a friend from Helena went on this trip as well. It was nice having a friendly face and someone I could trust on the trail.

    Snow conditions were pretty decent. Everything from packed roads to first track through 24" of snow. We had three first timers in the group. Two Heep Cherokees and one old GMC 1/2 Ton pickup. None of them were equipped for the ride. Half way through the trail we forced them to air down and that made a big difference. The GMC learned very quickly that speed was his only tool. That lead to some scary driving behavior, him very nearly rolling down a hillside (he literally slid sideways), and popping a bead on a tire TWICE.

    We had to push through some deep snow drifts to make first track. Recovery straps got a bit of use! And I learned the hard way that the 4 D ring shackles I bought don't fit my Pelfreybilt bumpers.... ugh.


    The trip itself was near Boulder Tunnel West of Jefferson City, MT. Due to deep snow and icy pack we were unable to make it to the top.

    Wish I had more photos to share. My companion took almost all the photos while I drove. She spent more time out of the truck than in the truck. LoL She has great photos of my having buried the driver side of my truck so deep I couldn't open the drivers door. I have a photo of her sitting on the snow bank I got buried in just to show scale. lol
