    Snow wheeling pics!!!!

    Man this was a fun run!!! This snow was wet, thick, and slick!!! It dumped 5 inches on us in the 5 hours we were there! I was breaking trail most of the day and was pushing 3 feet in some spots!! I burried the Waggy a few times throughout the day but it was a blast!! Luckily I was wheeling with a great group of guys from my club that could pull me out. Lessons learned: I need front tow points, and I should have had a longer shovel with me(I have since mounted a long handled shovel on my roof rack) Anywho, Here are some pics!








    Currently FSJ-less. For the second time...........

      Have to say i'm jealous. I only got to drive the gladiator one winter which was last year, and wouldn't ya know it it didn't snow! the year before we had over 4 feet and this year it looks to be similar.

              If you can't make it better why waste your time. No use repeating the orignal mistakes. I'm to old to push it that's why.

                          Actually I think I took the award for most stucks that day! But I dont blame that on the Waggy. It was mostly driver error! About halfway through the day I realized I was the only one there with a V8 and my rig wighed twice as much as most of the rigs on that run!! All of the other heavy trucks in our club stayed home that day. Nobody thought there would be any snow on the trail......................haha!

                          And it was fun! Anytime any of you want to come to SE Idaho for some wheeling our club would love to host you!

                            I loves me some snow. Too bad we don't get much in the desert.

                              Last year there was a day I drove to work that looked like that, no one expected to see me that day. I did put my snowshoes in the truck in case I got stuck, 20 miles to work so worst case it would be 10 miles walking 1 way or the other, and I'll do that for fun on a weekend. Didn't need them, the J20 walked thru all the drifts like a champ, and that was before I put the ls in the rear.

                              Great pics!
