    I ran Fordyce today and John tagged along. It was the end of our rock crawling year, and it was the first official snow run of the year 😁 We had about 2 to 3 inches of snow on the ground by the time we hit Meadow lake. We started the trail at about 9:30am and we were at Meadow Lake by 1:20..Took us about 3 hours and 45 minutes from eagle to Meadow. It rained for the first part of the trail and that made things interesting. For the first time in a long time, John got owned by winch hill 1, he had to winch in 2 spots coming up 😂



    Fun trip, thanks John for keeping me company 🍺

    John is on it!



    The rubicon was passable in January in my gray jeep on 37" MT/R's. It took 16 hours of winching to get up Cadillac, but it was passable!

    Is the snow sticking? Or another way to put it... Can we get another run in this year even if it's just to the first river crossing and back? 😁



    I need to get my top out of storage so I don't freeze. 😲
