Just a little fun with friends and family this weekend. We took out my nephews, brother-in-law Jared, Kelsey, Brian and his son Max. This was also the first run for Kelsey in her new XTerra, a super clean 2003.
Brian in the ExPo FZJ80. What an incredible truck and still perfect even after a trip all the way to Panama and back.
I drove the loaner HEMI AEV JK with my family. The little nephews LOVE the Jeep.
Along the way, we checked out a little side trail and a cool hand-dug mine shaft. It had a vertical shaft we couldn't see the bottom of. Would be fun to come back with ropes.
Brian and Max playing on the one little patch of snow we found - still fun.
My little nephews, tearing it up
There was one last hill that proved too much for the XTerra and it got stuck in a cross-axle ditch filled with snow. Then it failed the lead to the climb, so we strapped it to the JK and pulled it up nice and slow. It was just the lack of locking differentials or even traction control that did it in. In dry conditions, I am sure it would have made it.
Big thanks to Mark Longfield, who first showed me this road.
