?? Must be a language barrier thing.
I was saying, the road looks a bit dangerous with the snow on it. Looks like a good drop off.
I was recently on a snowy road like that (the TECORE guys will recall) where we got to a certain point of no return. It was off-camber, and slick, and I had a serious pucker going on.

Now i got it.. sorry for the confusion .. That road was very slippery , because here in Crete the temperatures are not below 0 and the snow is very wet and icy in the same time .. When i went up the same road , i slide to the left side , all most with one wheel outside the road and i had to do maneuvers for 3 minutes to get out of there and be able to clime up and i didn't wanted to do the same ting again.. Plus , I was alone on this trip , no other cars with me , and i didn't wanted to spend the night in the mountains , with my wife and the child ! So driving close to the rocks was just for protection not to fall down the cliff !

I'd like to submit this for next years calander. so I figure if I put it on here somewhere, I might remember when the time comes... Plus it was my brother's (PNutty, the blue one) last trip out before he leaves for Afghanistan on Tuesday.
Then here I just played around adjusting the levels for a while. Came out neat, I think

He was apparently the kid who didn't like riding in the Jeep...
I wish I had video of him. He stayed on the outside the entire time.

Here's one that I personally really like. Taken from one of my videos.
Cody will know where this is.. but it's in Dawson Forest in north Georgia.
I'll get a shot of the rig in action soon. Actually waiting to have my new Tread Wrights mounted. The silent armor's were sounding like M/T's driving down the road, Not so silent!

Well the 4 wheel drive is working after I rebuilt it thanks to James and Mario. Just thought I would have a little fun right around the corner from Mario's house.

I wish you could have Mario wasn't the same without you. There was a fort or something ,these two dudes and three girls were out there watching me. Also I hit up Mule road off 70 I think its near manchester followed the power lines at night. Got some great use from the Hellas. It was cool as hell you rode till you came to a road then sped across the HWY onto the next trail ended up way out there. I should have taken pictures or video via iphone. Mount Misery and there is another one we have to hit up,forget what its called. Also spoke with Josh we gotta link up and hit up all day. Google earth is my friend. Exploring is fun. Thanks again guys

Both times We've been to the spot near mario there has been the same group of what we think potheads. Did they have a Yaris with them?
