Sand and Snow 1/14/12 - 1/15/12 (Pine Barrnes, NJ)

Yea and you you know you trust your rig when you're wife and newborn are about to enter a water hole of unknown depth and you tell her while taping it "just go"! If I had the funds and time I would do a diesel.

Only picture I took

I don' know but that fuckin thing went thru every mudhole and water crossing like it was dry pavement.It's a fuckin beast.

he had to show me up in the one i got stuck! with his fuckin 38's vs my 32's i didnt stand a chance. i got high centered and it was all over. waiting to see pictures of that.....

Ed you got it all wrong, I didn't do this to "show you up". you only proved at that time that the hole was worth while. That's why I went in... and out Very Happy

Diesel made a difference only after the first attempt, wet v8 has no power, me and you proved that LAST TIME OUT, as I recall you puled me out of that shit.

i was only kidding. i didnt stand a chance in that hole with my CDL unlocked by the time i got stuck it was too late i was already high centered.

i learned a valuable lesson in that hole. synth line will soak up water and freeze on the winch drum into a solid block of ice. it was good for that one pull but after a night of being wet it was rendered useless on Sunday. i couldnt get the gear to disengage i think there was water in it and then i couldnt let the motor let the line out because it was just a frozen block of ice. the solenoid sparked and gave up and used a strap.

some good photos in there sam. thanks for coming out the LR3 performed great!

Ed, Hope we can do it again soon. btw, is it possible for you send me the GPS position coordinate of the two major water crossing we went through? I am trying to map out all the deep water cross (anything over 2 feet) on my GPS. I go to the pine w/ my friends with "less capable" vehicle. Those are areas I always try to avoid unless going in bigger group.

BTW IMO, that diesel MB-LR hybird simply kick-ass javascript:emoticonp(' affraid

for everyone to use freely.

here is the google map i have created over the past trips to the pines.

I'm up for a bridge building trip once it gets warm. There was plenty of straight cedar right by there, and looking at the satellite map, both sides of the causeway are accessible.

Looks like a good trip have to make down there sometime when its isn't freezing.

Awsome pics and vid Sam.

Looks like it was a great trip guys. Wish I could have made it out there. (...but I'm glad I picked up my Red D1 (for my wife Wink

) instead.)

How many trucks did you guys end up having turn up?

(FYI - If this is going to be an annual event, I'll mention it to the FPLRG guys...this looks like it should be another one of those 'can't miss' trips for those of us in Disco's...)
