Aren't you in Washington, just below BC, and you only had to cut one
tree?! With the 14 wind storms in 30 days I figured you'd need a skidder.

Re: Snow run pics
 

I'm an avid snowmobiler and truthfully
a rutted trail is very very annoying.
According to our local clubs, Any "tracked"
vehicle is allowed on the trail as long as
you have a valid trail pass.
So if ya want to use your Jeep on our trails,
Ya gotta have a set of these.

Re: Snow run pics
 

I So want a set of those for my CJ7!

There are some places that I would love to get back into in the winter
and I don't want to piss off the sledders. These trails 'are' dual use
'if' you are going into a hunt camp or fishing hole, but having to
depend on night driving so the trails are frozen enough to not track on
or getting stuck in there for 3 or 4 days because it warmed and the
bottom dropped out is not always fun....

Didn't even go out this year for our New Years run, no bottom on the
winter logging roads yet....

Re: Snow run pics
 

Where we go the snowmobiles outnumber 4wd by 10x. If it isn't plowed,
it's a snowmobile trail reguardless of any 'road' vs 'trail' on the map.
Of course the maps are not very accurate. My last wheeling trip was
fully instrumented with GPS and laptop. Came home and did the research,
we were driving on one trail, it clearly shows us switching to another
trail in the middle. No clue about that when we were following the ruts
out in the swamps.
