Black Friday Snow run
A few of us made our first snow run of the year to the mountains Friday. Not much snow until we almost reached the top of the summit.
Buddys sister’s Jeep stuck A couple feet of well packed snow from snow cats cruising over. A beautiful day too! It was around 65 degrees My buddies Ram Charger almost going off the edge of the road into the trees. Then winching back on to the road.

Re: Black Friday Snow run
Short video. The video quality from this old camera really sucks.
This stretch of trail is much steeper than it really looks on camera. Long video Trip plotted in Spot Adventures http://www.spotadventures.com/trip/view/?trip_id=182584

Re: Black Friday Snow run
I know what you mean about not being able to tell how steep the grade is on film.That tight snow is hard to climb in.Those Q-78s were eatin' like no fatty could.I`ve always said,"As long as I can back up,I can move ahead."
Thanks for sucking me in to your miserable day.I`ll never forgive you.
