Default Re: Loving the SNOW!

We've had snow since just before x-mas!! Just got another couple inches today. I've driven through about 18"-2 feet, covering the running boards, on a dirt road. No tracks, No chains!! Had to go 4Lo to get through it and did high center it in about 3 1/2' in a ditch I couldn't see. I had to slow down to make a turn onto the "out of the woods" road and "thump". It was kind of freaky getting out of the truck and sinking into the snow up to my thigh! The 3 just sank and tires were completely off the snow spinning. Thankfully a good ol' boy came along and lent us some shovels to dig out the snow under the 3. Once the tires got back in the snow it pulled right out. Although it was fun, I don't think I'll be driving on that road without 4 chains on again. Snow that deep covers things you really don't want to hit or go into!!
