Well last saturday me and Justin (jheyne) got out for a run to elbe. We ened up starting the Gotcha trail but only got so far with the 18" of fresh snow. I was breaking trail and a bunch of jeeps were following but they ended up turning back the dual lockers jsut werent pulling through for them. We got to a point and turned back as well we were both open front.

A little later we went down a hill and on the way back Justin slid into a ditch. I couldnt get around him and i knew if i tried to pull him out i would only pull myself in. We ended up getting the jeeps to anchor up the hill and i winched both of us up it was a pita and took 2 or 3 hours

And now for the pics finally

 

looks like fun!

 

that was a hell of a time man!!!!
we definately need to go again once some of that snow clears. and we gotta try to get some more people in this time.
and i will bring my camera next time for more pics. but i do got some

were way down at the bottom of the page but these are the pics that the jeep guys took..
they have videos too but they don't play for some reason

 

Its funny they made it look like they could go anywhere and we were always stuck but in reality i was breaking trail that they still couldnt make behind us even with dual lockers

 

i kno dude once you broke the trail i was doin everything you were and they were gettin stuck on crap that didn't even phase us. and they were all on 33s or 35 with dual lockers and a winch

 

YEah i know it was crazy. You open front and on all terrains still outwheeling them. It's all about the wheelbase

 

and knowing how to drive to lol
i was watching some of the videos they have on their site, and some of the dudes don't really know what theyre doin except for the old guy on the bfg ats haha

 

Nice snow!! Wish I could have gone, but that is a hella drive for me!!

 

Looks like fun...I sooo want to get the 84 goin...(road legal that is)...

Yeah, I got a flyer for that expo last week but I won't be able to make it...

 

I know i'm saying the only way that run would be fun is in the runner, the 83 would have walked through effortlessly.. boring.

And yeah i cant wait for busy either its gonna be sweet

Almost done, just got carb and steering to go
