These first few pics are forma camping trip 3 weeks ago. The pow pow was about 3 to 4 feet deep. We headed out of camp around 11 and began breaking trail by 11:30. As you can see it was snowing fairly heavily at times.

Now on to this last weekend. The pow pow has now turned to ice. It's a lot like spring snow, you cruise on top, till you sink in a creek bed, or tree well...........kinda like this:

At this point I was advised to put the right foot down and see what happens. I was able to drive right out of it:

damage check: passenger fender and rear quarter panel. Nothing too bad. I''m thinking of something new for the bed now and will probably put fiberglass fenders on eventually

Yeah, that looks familiar Jess, but the pics I put up are from when I went camping the night after I went up with you guys, that was a long weekend. I miss that snow though!!!!

We were cruising in 2 for a bit. Can you believe the redneck axles held up to driving out of that ??
