woo snow 4wheelin today

So this afternoon i was sitting around with my dad and we were bored so we decied to take our 4runners (my 89 and his 99) and we decide to head back into the new development behind our house which has paved but unplowed roads with some reallllly steep hills . so anyways we take it slow on the way down the road climb up a few of the hills no problem going down was fun tho... lots of intesting slides pulled.I wish i took someone to take pictures but oh well..anyways on our way back to the roads i decided to gun it while in 4WD Hi so im going about 50 miles an hour and im in a big open area (going to be a caludasack on both sides) anyways i slam on the breaks (no i dont have abs) and i cut the wheel to the left and i managed to hit some ice and spin around twice and slide to a safe stop away from anything dangerous....wooo that was intersting for the first run this winter...anybody else had some fun in the snow yet?...haha yes I know i sound like a foolish kid but if you saw a big open lot what would you do?

Near my friends house they were building a housing devlopment, and I decided to go drive around in the bulldozed areas. I found a patch of mud and went through it a few times, it eventually got to be fairly deep and rutted up on both sides. The next week the workers put a bunch of logs around it.

the key is to work at a construction site! i have access to a few acres of sand, we have rock piles (climbed one today, had my left front tire about 3 feet off the ground, right front was still on flat surface, but i lifted my left rear up and off the ground and my right was almost fully stuffed into the wheel well), and some mud spots at well.


ps, im starting to like this rock climbing stuff, slower and more extreme angles!
