dayum you couldn't even get to Ice House, that's all paved!!!!

cruzila · March 27, 2006, 03:29:16 PM

Not Jim, don't know the guy, seen him around tho. Conrig is the plate.

We got about 8 + feet over the last 3 weeks. Sacked out some so it looks like 4-6 with drifts. That drift in the first pic is about 10 feet. Rained on it right before we went up, I found a low spot with 4 feet of snow and 18 inches of water. First time I've been stuck this year. I couldn't even feel the tires moving I was so high centered.

The other guys broke it to the top and I went a little further, made some good progress, actually hit 10 miles an hour through all fresh, then hit a deep soft section and gave up. I came real close to getting buried/stuck three times.

That looks cool.

Reminds me of the Christmas movies we used to watch as kids with those trees sticking out of the snow.

I think I would need a top before trying something like that.
