PEAK PUTTERS

It was me and Vadim. apparently we made it as far as Bryan and Lance's group did the day before. Snow was powdery as mentioned in called run thread by another user but it was beautiful. I almost lost me Jeep and broke my winch in the process of trying to save it from going over the side of the mountain. Also in the process of trying to keep it from going over I had a catastrophic power steering failure and had to drive 7-10 miles off the mountain with no power steering. Overall we had a great time. I only took a couple pics and a few vids. Pics first, vids if I get a chance later tonight...

Thanks for posting. I wondered how it went for you guys. Long Sunday runs can make for rough Mondays. I imagine you were feeling a little stiff on Monday.

Lucky for me I was off yesterday but yes, I was extremely stiff. Once I got her onto pavement the power steering issue wasn't an issue at all. the drive home took longer than expected due to not being able to drive more than 38 MPH. Had snow and ice packed into the beadlocks and couldn't remove it all. I am going to have to add a small blow torch to my tool bag for such occasions.

How / Where did you almost slide off the mountain??

At the very end of where Bryan was breaking trail on Saturday...

I found a broken strap in the snow where your tracks ended if you want it back

We only made it about a mile further, before one truck lost altetnator, than those marks. Looks like you winched up hill and then turned around?
