Snow Track Ride
Jack and I had a dude weekend....we hit the Fordyce area and Rubicon. Scott let Jack use his quad since he was in Vegas.
More pics and a video.
This is what happens in DEEP snow when you spin tracks!! BAD!
Deep enough?
My boots were filled with water after this winching spot.
No shit
To see the rest..hit the PHOTO page.

The first stuck spot, was a little disconcerting. We used a winch from the quad to pull it backward. No go. So we put a dead line to keep the quad from moving( no small feat with snow knee deep. ). The winch gave up. So we put a snatch block on for more pulling power. It moved 6" and died. So, we started digging much to our dismay. Still no go. Then I told Jack, let's go forward , the tracks float better going forward. BING! 2 seconds later, cruising around no problem.
So when it got stuck in a deep hole, we didn't even try to go backward. We winched forward easily into the creek. Then winched out. Ate lunch and had a blast.

Rest of you? Less, IMO. It's smooth...floating type feeling....not jarring.
