Add to that they have the road closed to get to the range I go to Tim. Only 1 way in and out and that is a dirt road.

Yeah Tim. BEcause of the way the road cuts through the forest it is a winding hilly road. They dont want to be pulling people from around the trees or having to fix the road.

I don't know how he stopped, but he did. the snow berm caused us to go sideways at 60, then the old whip back and forth. I know the wheels were up. Janet is a great driver. later we both laughed and said it was a good thing we p'd before we left the hospital!

Ice is the worst part. Snow isn't so bad. Glad everything is ok and especially that you p'd before leaving.

That it is Tim. But it is the DNR that oversees the range there so they have to look out for the stupid ones more then the ones that know how to drive in snow and ice.

Tim, you can come here and shoot.
I have a hill we shoot into. As long as I invite a few local LEO's, we'll not be bothered.

When we're done, I'll steam up a bushel of crabs......

That it is Tim. A few know the road pretty well like I do into the park but that's it. Every know and then someone will be driving on the road in and will be going way to slow.
