I also taught him how to put in 5min of hard work and then spend 15min staring and admiring what you have done...

Just imagine if the guy on top of the rock was tied off on a spotter line...
can you say catapult, that guy would have ended up in the next county...
I guess they call it rock crawling for a reason...

...about letting out on the clutch and rolling back down the hill, I heard that was a big no-no with a crawler.  It's possible to spin the clutch so fast that it shatters (what's 200:1 reduction to the tires is 1:200 multiplication to the tranny).  You'd better shift back up into high, or at least out of double low.  I can dig up a smelly old thread from pirate  :reg: if anyone wants to read more about it.
