For the next 5 days the forecast calls for an average high of 40 degrees and an average low of 30 degrees and and average of 30% chance of precipitation. With those temperatures and that chance of precipitation, I'd say it will be snowing all week!!
I like that! Hopefully my front locker goes in right and I can make it out there on the 12th.
I was in that area a few years ago when my jeep was stock and there was nearly 4 feet of snow.

Yep, I can totally see airing the tires down to about 5-10 psi.

If your talking about my "stuck" picture, Im so over that! I had never aired down a 17" wheel before that and was worried that the shorter sidewall would come off the bead easier than a 15" wheel. I normally run them at 8-10# now.That picture is the only time Ive had the jeep stuck. So far.

i thing you are gonna need all that supply for yourself, did you ever rediscover park?

also right now my rig is down, making strange noises in the t-case and drivers side axle. diff fluid came out green cause the vent tube was dragging against the driveshaft. so she needs some work, but i will be ready by trail time. also, forgot my shovel on the last trial i ran, oh well, got a new one
