The CDL was engaged, and I was in low. I got the frame hung up in some really deep snow, and didn't have the momentum I needed to push through it. I tried digging it out, but ended up calling my buddy with a super duty to come pull me out.
I drove around town with the helmet cam on the other day, and got plenty of WTF looks.
Check out my Youtube page and you can watch the videos I made earlier that day while I was shooting.

I was under the impression that you wanted to use high gear in snow to reduce your chance of spinning out. And airing down the tires helps.
I never play in the snow without a snow shovel, a come along, multiple tow ropes, hatchet, axe, chainsaw, and some wrenches. I learned that after I hit a 4ft snow drift last year. Oh, and chains. If it weren't for those chains...
I got the frame lifted up too, I had snow packed above the oil filter. Took me a while to dig out, but I got it. Chains and the snow shovel were key. This year, even my mudders got stuck without chains.

A cell phone, and buddy with a Super Duty is sooo much easier though...

I do need to stock up on recovery equipment, and figure out a place to mount my Hi-Lift.
