There was a newer Jeep there when I got back.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12201850232295196451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6846804417064843412.post-56822829524183908762012-03-27T09:20:36.145-07:002012-03-27T09:20:36.145-07:00Thanks.

From where I was Sky Pilot looks like a week long effort. WAY TO GO!<br /><br />(I was happy, however, to not have to lose time fooling around on the road below: go farther and get stuck, or just stop and hike? It went from dry mud to deep snow in about 50 yards. Anyway, I never push the truck on those unmaintained roads any more--not worth the half-mile saved for the stress of driving on ice.)Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12201850232295196451noreply@blogger.com
