Well, I usually get to make fun of all the young guys that I work with, but now for once I am the butt of THEIR jokes...at least for a little while...

My pennance for this mistake and subsequent rescue was to post the pics of my dumb move, so here they are:

Tried to make it through about 150m of drifted in trail, and was convinced that I could, but about 3m into it, I high-centered so bad my wheels werent even touching the ground. JD710 backhoe couldnt pull me out, he had to use the bucket to 'drag' up out of there....I of course am taking some serious heat over this one....

 

Way to go tweederputz.

 

well yaknow if yer gonna do somepin ya may as well do it up big

looks like the snow had a good crust on it so that makes it tough.

 

Yea, crust is right...two days before, I blasted down this trail no problem...the crust 2 days later was almost hard enough to drive on....for a little ways...

Dumb, dumb, dumb....

 

when ya gonna learn................the first time is easy after that ya got crust man

 

I know gettin into my cabin the last time of the year is easy........gettin out a couple days later is sometimes fun

 

you need bigger tires !!

 

I cant even laugh at you...I was north of Edson on a brand new lease road, pulled over to use the phone and the truck sank to the transfer case. That truck never was the same. Luckily, there are no pics.

 

I got some pics Doc..want em back ???

 

He's not talking about the neked pics of you and him Whit. He's talking about the truck.
