i picked mine up at walmart for $25 and the hook snapped hence me getting stuck a lot. i would suggest to pick up some true offroad chains before heading out on an adventure like this. it would save you from lots of digging and frustration of not being able to get free

That looks like a LOT of fun.

I would have been nervous though, it looks to me and sounds to me like you and Scooby were a in a little over your heads. What would you have done if those other 4 x 4s not show up? Sounds like you were pretty stuck up there with the snow coming down.

Do you guys bring supplies to spend the night in sub zero temps. if you are stuck there?

what type of chains would you recommend as a good off road chain

Sorry i was gone for a bit guys.

Sailracer - I had sufficient supplies for both scooby and i in my car for 3 nights. we were an easy walk out as well. we would've gotten out without the help of the other 4x4, but damn it woulda been a *****.

ewgulick - i bought mine at walmart...
