Full report and pictures (hopefully soon) are up on The site. www.timbertamers.org
Anywho, here we go.
Some of the group. Most notably we had a guy with a brand new JK wrangler. Dealer tags still on it.
Folks were mingling a bit too long, so Chad took the lead, and Tom and I followed. We got out ahead of everyone in search of untracked snow.
We ran into Boonie Buster and some of the folks we know from the NWW board. They were helping a group get a Honda CRV turned around. I took this opportunity to get in the lead. You can see my extreme elation here.
Shortly after that, we ran into fresh snow, no tracks. I started plugging along.
After a while, my jeep started to run warm, so I let Chad take the lead.
We were making some progress on this little assent, but Chad's rig started running warm too. He didn't want to beat on it too hard (it was a rental), so he let Tom by to break trail for us.
Here's Chad watching Tom come around us in "the little jeep that would"
Here you can see how bad I was plowing with my front end.
My Wife, and co pilot. Dressed as a "snow ninja".
If you look real close in this picture, you can see the other Tamers stacked up ready to attack the hillclimb we just paved for them.
We wheeled to the end of the road, where it was washed out and then turned around. On the way back Tom blew a bead. A quick shot from my compressor, and we were on our way. Here's us trying to make a frozen hi lift work.
After that, we finally made it back to the main group, who instead of trying the hill climb, just built a fire and found themselfs some christmas trees.
We got everone turned around and headed back down. I thought these pics were kinda neat. You can see the snow build up in my wheel wells. At one point the wheel wells were compltetly full of snow, with only the tire showing. I couldn't get a pic of them full, but here the are half full.
