Talking Slightly different Photoshoot (I got bored also)

Went up to North Shore today and did some mild 4x4. Was in 4x2 for about 2 miles when it suddenly turned into a 200-300 ft clay trap. The pics below are from before the nasty stuff.

Everybody always shows their clean trucks, well dirty trucks have their place as well






I was wanting to play some more, but I had the wife and 3 kids with me and I got tired of hearing them all screaming



On a side note, got to yank a jeep about 100 feet as well.
it was a stock "Rubicon" jeep. was playing in the big boy area where he didn't belong...got there with lots of throttle and little brain. luckily my wheelbase is long enough that I could straddle the stuff he was high centering on

It's been a long time since I've unstuck somebody. Had no idea what 400HP + 4x4LO will do...that poor ******* was just hanging on for dear life while I threw 3 roostertails of red mud everywhere


wish I had pics, but we were in mud to my steps and I wasn't getting out into that mess with flip-flops on

now I need some 35" KM2 mudders. The Wrangler AT/S did okay mostly, but boy did they goop up badly. I was following a H2 with BFG A/T's and he wasn't having any of the slickness problems I had. I did quite a bit of clay/mud plowing.


Then I remembered that old saying. "If in doubt, throttle out"

Tylus the guys in the Snowbelt are going to be jealous. And I don't mean about getting to pull a Jeep out. As for getting pics while doing the pull; that's what the wife is for.
