Default Lysmachia gets stuck in Steamboat

Oh I think this stuck might have been better than my Moab Escalator stuck.



Ok here is what Andy wrote when I called him after getting stuck....

She walked back home, changed clothes, walked back to her truck, and got a tow truck to winch her out....

She is fine, her truck is fine, she said she has some awesome pics...
The real story. It's all Parthum's Fault! (Bedintheback)


On the way back from getting cigarettes at 6:00 am (No Parthum is just a FRIEND and his Girlfriend L-train was back at the ranch)..I let Parthum drive - He has a sick Taco on 37's blada blada. Just so he could see how different the runner was. We were driving around trying to find the german crack dealers house (another story) when somehow the runner just slid right off the road! (We were only in 2WD).



And then the school bus definitally made it worse.



The pics are histerical. 20 kids all trying to pitch in. Too cute. And they ate all of Brians Red Vines!



I wasn't really in danger of rolling too much because the snow was up to my sliders (4 feet!!!) And if I did roll it would have been into 4 feet of snow! So anyhow because my winch is currently being fixed *grrrrr* I had to have a tow company come and winch me out, which worked perfectly!


Hitching up


Digging out


And she's out! 6 HOURS later. God we were fareezing!

Thanks guys!

Oh she wanted to stay - trust me. As RedRunnerTC said to me... "Those Solid Axles become an Anchor in the snow don't they?" One hell of an Anchor. Damned!!! And then when we spun the tires to assist in the school buss pull that's when we only got waaaaay deeper and slid further down. Like I said the only thing that stopped us from rolling was all the snow all the way up to my sliders.

Steamboat had 10 feet of snow in November setting a record. Decemeber has been almost as bad. Now who likes to ski???
