I don't miss the snow & ice but it was fun playing in it when I lived in Colorado.

Come on guys, I know there's gotta be more of you Snowbirds that have "snow-wheeling" picts. Post 'em up please.

This is funny. I drive in the snow because I have to not because it's fun. If thats the case I "wheel" my eagle talon almost everyday on the way to work. That car has gone through alot.

Snow wheelin is the BEST!
...as long as your heater works.

I went to the peak at Capital Forest a few weeks back. Lots of snow, sadly I only take pictures when my truck is stopped. And most of the time its when i'm stuck. I slid into ditches alot. Some jackass' drivers think that they own the trails.

Especially those losers in the Subi's.
"Yeah man, my wagon can go anywhere your big truck can go.."
But if my big truck didnt get out of the way you'd be screwed. Those subaru's work great when they get up to 60mph before they hit any snow.

I've got a cheap digital camera I keep in my glove box now so hopefully i'll start posting more low quality wheeling pictures and videos!

More than 70% in the snow, snow can pull crazy tricks on you. and whats underneath can get even crazier, if your not familiar with the area you better be able to read the snow...
