Evans snow run todays pics
Nothing spectacular, just alot of snow. We went to run the 311 and a scout was blocking the trail. So we backed up(no fun on ice with welded diff)about 500ft and turned around. Then the road and thats all we took pics of.
Is that the main road going up to the parking lot?
To bad I didn't get your email for the time untell about 10:30 this morning or I would have meet up with you guys :(

Hey Andy I am sorry we missed ya, but neither of you guys were missing anything. The 311 was blocked half way down with a stock abandoned scout and we had to back up alot. Then the main line was blocked with a stock s10 and some guys stuck in there cj7s-helped them to speed things up. Then we ran the main line to the entrance of the 520 and campgrounds, fresh road straight ahead. We broke trail for oh about 1/2 mile if that and I got stuck to the framerails. So we had to chain Jr to a tree and winch me backwards. The motor was running 240degrees from the 4to 5000 rpm assaults to break the wet 2ft deep snow. So we looked into the 520 which the road to the 520 was drifted to a sidehill and I found a new hatred for my welded rear diff backing up on ice with a sidehill.I was sweating bullets, since my only passenger was my 7yr old son. We packed it in at 3pm and had fun.

I'm up for wheeling Evans Creek this coming Sunday...IF everything comes together on the cruiser.
I should have my front driveline by friday, exhaust done on friday and finish up a ton of little things (including front shocks) on saturday.
Even that "wet cement" type snow looked fun after not wheeling for 5 months:(
