rock crawling in the rain
First off,
I attempted a narley trail that starts with a climb over a bed of boulders.....it was raining and wet, and I have mud/snow hybrid tire-ssm16's. I could not do it at all, way too slipety so I backed out of it...
Do any of you crawlers go out in the rain to climb rocks or is this a dry day affair??? Tips??

Wet , dry , mud it is all good.That is what lockers are made for. Just never off raod alone and a few guys with winches helps too. The old adage is we never leave anyone behind.

Okay, I don't have lockers, good excuse now because I only buy it when I need it.... I rely on the computer controlled bld!!!! Plus I didn't air all the way down, just to 16, guess I need on board air too!!!! Winch too... Just talking about smooth wet slippery.....rocks. I destroy all other terrain. >.!!!
in the mine time just make friends with winches
