IXNAYXJ said:Anyway, back to the subject at hand. This was last Sunday, about half a mile past the RR trestle. The problem wasn't so much thw snow, but the huge ruts that had been dug. Here's my little Jeep struggling though:

Since you have been up there this year. What was the snow like? Which tires are on it in that pic? Was the issue short tires and deep rut's? how far did you go? Any reason we can't get to the top again?

alexer03 said:Since Matt is down in oregon ill take over. Matt and I went up their last sunday and as we got past the railroad trestle he got into fresh snow. Someone had been here before us and then it was snowed over. So once Matt hit that he was starting to snowplow and then he was sorta highentered. Matt has the 29inch goodyear tires that come stock on jeep, and larger tires/ a lift would have cleared this with little problem. The snow packed down pretty nicely and was ice by the time it was dark. We were only a few hundred yards past the railroad trestle.
