I hear they are killer on land but not fantastic submarines. It's hard to look cool asking someone to pull your truck put of a frozen lake....and we all know looking cool is numero uno on the priority list

Pfftt, all problems are solvable with trick photography and a snorkel.I hear they are killer on land but not fantastic submarines. It's hard to look cool asking someone to pull your truck put of a frozen lake....and we all know looking cool is numero uno on the priority list
Well, the snorkel helps...but that only gets you to the roof rack and all the cool kids with real submarines will make fun of you and use derogatory terms like "floater" and "foemarine".

Ice was only 4" thick so no I did not take the cruiser out on the ice.

Another awesome adventure. Left at 5:30 AM and headed for the lake for some more ice fishing.
Driving over the top of a MTN at 10,300 ft at first light.
Than I got to the lake and greatly underestimated the snow depth trying to access an area of shore. I thought the snow was about a foot deep, not 2.5 feet deep and I quickly proceeded to bury the front axle in the snow.
Nobody around and nothing to hook the winch to so it was time to get out the shovel, dig out, and air down.

Hit 140,000 miles feeding eagles at fishlake this weekend.
Fishlake sits at almost 9'000 ft elevation and it's one of Utahs biggest natural lakes. Every winter a bunch of eagles show up and live at the lake. The eagles seemed extra active this trip.
America!!!!!

At one point a different kind of bird showed up and they were getting aggressive with each other. I think it might have been a golden eagle.
It was pretty fun watching the eagles and throwing them fish.
I also caught my first lake trout which was way cool.

I want to post the Team America theme song from YouTube here, but it's not appropriate and might get take down so I kindly request you sing it to yourself in your head.
Great looking trip.
America!

Hit the road early and headed to the sands to try and cut a fresh lion track in the new snow. No cat tracks but it was still a beautiful day to enjoy some awesome wheeling, scenery, and a little target practice.

The snow was super dry fluffy powder. Probably the driest fluffiest snow I have ever driven in. It was a blast to drive in until I hit a snow drift with a sand drift hiding underneath.
20 miles from the pavement, no cell service and all alone. Of course every time I get stuck there is nothing for me to run my winch to. Time to start digging...
The snow was so dry and the temperatures were not high enough to melt the snow. The sand under the snow was extremely dry and loose which made getting out tough. Once this snow melts a little and the sand gets some moisture it will create way better traction.
Ended the adventure with a much deserved although late breakfast.
And still living the dream! Get some!

Got a new phone, s22 ultra to replace the old s8+. Had fun playing with the new camera. It takes way better night photos. Unfortunately there was a lot of cloud cover so no stars.

For dinner I grilled a prime aged t-bone and some asparagus. So delicious!!!

Awesome scenes as always. Do you normally camp/explore solo? If so, do you pack specific comms gear like a sat phone or other device in case of emergency? I'm envious of your adventures!
