Finally found some snow here. It's been over a year at this point. But finally a picture that isn't a desert shot.
I've been to Rocks and Valleys, but in July. Fun place.Well not today, but over the weekend when to an off road park called Rocks and Valley in Michigan for their reject run. There were a ton of people. Their parking lot was full a near by business parking lot was fun and the service access road about two miles away had truck and trailers parked for over a mile down the service road.
I have been here many times, so not a lot of pics. There was a bunch of fools running around though so there was plenty of action. Did have to winch up two different inclines because the trail was iced over and I could not get a run at it. Just about every vehicle that encountered the incline had to be winched up.

Because of the ice and deep snow, there was a need often for more skinny pedal. The Shitbox XJ was abusing his skinny pedal. I enjoyed the show while drinking Black Rifle Coffee and trying to stay back enough to keep rocks and ice out of my radiator and off the windshield.

Honestly it is probably the most technical wheeling in Michigan.I've been to Rocks and Valleys, but in July. Fun place.
Wow!!! You guys have more snow than we do here in Eastern Canada!!Went to Big Bear on Saturday 1/23 with my girlfriend. First time in the snow with this Jeep, and it was coming down the whole day. Going up the front side was bad, coming down was worse - 3.5 hours. A sea of cars putting on and taking off chains at every opportunity, even in the lane. Boppin' around was pure joy though.
Had a little action... Being solo I told myself I would not be going down any steep inclines, as I may not get back up it on the way out, and with that in mind I confidently went up a slight climb going into Holcomb Valley. I was in 4-low, slow, good traction and then my transfer case popped out of 4-low just as I reached the top. I stepped on the brake, put it in neutral so i could slap it back in and we started to slide back down. It was a slow slide for about 100 feet but there was a gulley on one side and we were crabbing. No control, a little pucker though. We stopped on a big rock at the edge and pulled out. Was just putting around, not aired down. Makes you think.
