Sorry that you are not getting to run up there in the North West. I should not rub it in but I will any way, we are having a warm snap. It was almost 20 deg above normal here for the last couple of day's and most of next week will be the same.

Well when are you going to be forced to climb over something larger than a tree?

lol not usually, and if u do, what's on the other side probably isnt worth it.

i have goten up a 6 foot sheer rock with my bad boy. i got an old cj5 lifted 12" with 38" . dana axels with lockers. a beefed up 302 and a 8000lb winch. i have gotten it verticle on a tree before. then it rolled over backwards. it was kinda fun. it also has a full roll cage. so a 3 foot river in the road was nothing. i drove it to practice becaxsue i thought i would have to do something like that. my daily driver would not have done so well.
