My buddy and I went track'in last Thursday and it started out sunny and brite. 86.gif

We were commenting to each other how nice the snow conditions where and how good we were gett'in around ... NOTE To Self - NEVER say things that will jinx you later and bite you in the a$$ !! 021.gif

We had lunch & decided we would go out to "Baldy Ridge" ... we were hav'in a blast play'in the open meadows when my buddy started over this hill & down into a small gully ... NOTE To Self - Always Make sure HE makes it before you follow !! ... as I started following him down thru this gully and as he started up out of it, he started sinking, sliding sideways downhill eek.png ... and I made a fatal mistake ... I slowed down 91.gif ... as he was lucky enough to get back on top of the snow ... I now had broke thru the crust ... and I was stuck. 16.gif

My buddy almost got stuck again, only this time in front of me ... but some how he made it out of that predicament ... went up the hill and got back behind me.

Now the work started ... digging & winching. I used all 65 ft of tow strap I had & about 35 ft of his winch cable .... then some more digging .... some more winching ... more winching ... well, you get the picture 03.gif ......... after about 2 1/2 hrs later ... I was on the hill top with my buddy and we were rolling the tow straps back up ... Whew ... now I'm thirsty too !!

Here's a couple photo's of the days ride and my current exercise program ... 93.gif

I think all of us with the bigger 4x4 quads have been in that situation whether it be snow or nasty mud. It sucks huffin and puffin getting your beast freed up.

And I wasn't trying to be funny, sometimes it just comes across that way ...

:cute::laugh:

Right on Wylde Guy !! It was awesome !! Anytime out in the "Out-of-Doors" is awesome to me ... just some are more awesome than others !!

And HECK YEAH !!! ... I'd much rather get stuck than break even a fingernail ... I mean, that smarts !! :frown:

A warm fire & cold beer he says !! ... maybe AFTER I got out cause it would of killed us to have to walk to even find a twig to burn from where I was work'in out !! :redfacec: ... :smilielol5c: ... :smilielol5c:

Glad ya liked the photo's Big Guy !! :cheer:

      So we are almost a month into winter and I've been so busy working on my house that up until today, I didn't realize that we just haven;t gotten any real snow yet to warrant putting the plow on my grizzly. So that got me thinking, what are the latest plows out there and what ATV plows are the best? I've got 2 snow plows for my grizzly, a quadboss pile driver atv plow set up and a snowsport ATV plow. They are both a bit dated now and I tend to stick with the snowsport due to ease of use and I just like it so much. So if you have a plow on your ATV, please let us know what it is and post a picture with your atv/plow would be awesome. Would also like to know what you like and dislike about it.
      This is back a while when I did a write up on these 2 plows.... in 2009 I got the snowsport and in 2012 I got the quadboss.

      Hi. I just joined the community. I have a sheep farm and use a Polaris 500HO, Polaris 700efi and a JD Gator 825i for different jobs around the farm. I do all the repairs myself so I am sometimes needing some advice and maybe I can be of some help to others as well.

      I am looking to replace the Maxxis AT 25x8-12 tires on my Yamaha Grizzly 700 and put on snows.  Going bigger to 27" and wider to 9" or 10" is probably a good idea, yes????? I've heard that Maxxis Zillas are good. 
      I just want to use the quad on the trail to get into the lake and then go ice fishing. 
      Appreciate any and all advice.
      Thank you!
