Winter Jeeping in Nova Scotia
What was a great after noon turned into a nightmare when after finishing the Claremont trail we decided to take a quick 15 minute run through "The Rail System" where we got half way through and my 33's were constantly off the ground on top of the mud, snow and ice...after toasting my Champion winch Lance backed up as far as he could and hooked two straps onto me attached together by a wooded dowel and after a couple good solid tugs one of the straps broke and the dowel and strap took it's stored energy and smashed out the rear window taking the rear wiper blade with it striking Lance in the side of the head and the strap with dowel continued on to smash the front windshield...Just the remaining 15 feet of strap came back at my Jeep caving the grill in about 3 inches...We then tried to snatch block Lance to a tree while attaching a strap to me and wound up ripping the welds off of Lances rust free rear bumper...After that Lee came in from behind and tried to tug me out that way and finally I was free and we backed out while Lanc winched his way forward...what was supposed to be a quik 15 minute run turned into a 4 hour NIGHTmare...
