Sunday at Rausch creek. Temp never got above 19 degrees.
1st try, 1st gear and made it about 15' up the 25' hill.
2nd try, 1st gear a little more of a run(6') and just to the lip.
3rd try, 1st gear a little further of a run(10' total) Front tires just cleared the top.
4th try, 2nd gear same starting spot as the 3rd try. As the rear tires clear the top, the drivers side front catches a stump sticking 2" above the ice. VERY LOUD BANG. One guy thought a shot gun went off.
Drive slug shattered into 4 pieces taking out the wheel hub. Thankfully I have alloys because there is no signs of spline damage. Thats about 1/8" of ice on the beadlock. Talk about COLD.
