So here's the story.
I was following BMCCool and he got a little ahead of me on the trail. (I wasn't paying attention) The trail turned to the left, there was a rock on the left side a tree in the middle and a mudpit on the right. It looked like everyone went over the rock (the high side of the hill) so I followed. I got the front tires up but the back tires started slipping. The back of the Jeep started to slide down the hill. It pulled the front tires off and the Jeep slid sideways down the trail.
we slid for about a foot when the tires Caught. The Jeep to me felt like it got up on two wheels when it caught. Thankfully it settled in the position of the Pic. The hardest part was keeping the wife in the jeep when we quit sliding.
With a little winching thanks to Corey and Chris we got it straight.
I wish I had a drink after that.
