I just got up from a short cat nap. 😀
Definitely, it's one of those -- everybody needs to know the route. This had every intention of being a mild run. The guy that lead had his 7-8 yr old son. You can all safely know there is a backyard for him.
Yeah Bender, I meant Meadow Lakes Rd. Good to know about the other side of that hill.
9:53 pm
Few pictures from my friend in the Ford.
Graniteville was just peachy!!
This is Stuck Session 1.5 for the Ford and 2.0 for the JKU. This was roughly 1:30
High lift the rear to pack in. This was true quick sand snow.
And here is a sign that had we seen (right before above), I would have called all stop. 
It says 4 miles to Bowman lake. Shot up with bullet holes and knocked down in the ditch.

The same snow spot would be compacted down with 2-3 vehicles. Every one of them needed extrication. We had some awesome winching going on. 6 rigs and the 2 fullsizes had no winch. Winch on the black JK crapped out. Control box most likely as another Winch controller was tried and no workie.
Jeff and Bill -- thanks for the help and trying to ascertain things. I can't explain why some things were done and other not. Plenty of hindsight 20/20 stuff. 7 ppl and 6 rigs involved lots of effort in extricating.
