So I get a call on sat night at midnight, it's a fellow wheeler that blew up his transfer case in 5 ft of snow 20 miles off the highway from timmothy lake by government camp. So after invading up with another guy we headed out about 3am! to makle a long story short we had to break trail (5+ feet) for about 20 miles to get to the truck, then replace his transfer case and by 8 am we were attempting to pull him down off the MT. Only having front wheel drive it was a harsh task to pull a f350 20 down an unplowed trail with 2 jeeps. As 2pm on Sunday rolled around (no sleep sence the day before) we finally made it out of the woods and i was headed home to PASSOUT!

That's pretty badass. There's definitely some serious snow up there meow. Was he stuck out there with the truck?

Man that sounds like a long night, I remember those. At least he went with someone else, to often people go alone and have no one to help. Good to hear that shoes got him out. looks like some good snow
