A couple of us from Carolina K-5 decided to take off and head up to Callalantee for some snow wheeling in a winter wonderland. It was a blast, 6-8 inches at the camp area and up to about 18-24 inches up top and on the Skyline. There were alot of hard long throttle pulls in the deep snow to plow thru and get up some slick climbs. We had a little carnage, My buddy Danny broke a tie rod on Armour-All (he had a spare) and i got up against a tree just before the ledge on the Amorour-all extension and bent the B-pillar and now neither of my drivers side doors fit (they wont open or close), I also must have had a hub lock-out come down on a big rock as i now have a hole in my rt hub lock-out housing. I just gotta replace it and i'm good to go. Heres some pics.

We had a blast, snow wheeling is alot of fun and so worth the trip.
 
Awesome!! i cant believe how deep the snow was up on the skyline. we were just up there over new years and hardly any snow there at all.
