Despite all the rain we had, the North Texas Hummerteam still went out to this hill country to tackle some very wet slippery brutal terrain.
Here is a short video clip to give you an idea of how slippery it was. This is a little baby jeep with XTerrain sliding down this hill.
Slippery Hill Video Clip
My Hummer with it's all terrains and all the extra weight slid the entire course of this hill. It was like being on a sled. Major ass puckers.
Here is another good video clip of Sam going up this muddy ledge. Sam has a 4" lift and this side slope didn't seem to bother.
This video clip is sweet!
Sam vs. the Ledge Video Clip
Pictures just can't capture the actions like these video's can, but for whatever reason, that was the best of the video. We just didn't shoot much. Too busy taking picutres, spotting, or driving I guess.
First picture is Don's Jeep, he's a salesguy at Classic Hummer

No offroad trip of mine would be complete without me needlessly gunning it through some mud.

Sam from Adventureteam.com on the same hill. He actually started to go sideways and his ass end was going to nail a tree. The mud was slick enough that I actually football blocked his back end and moved it into the rut so he could ride the hill down.

Detonate,
That video of Sam is sweet!! Has he had any problems with his lift and does he four-wheel very much? He looks pretty fearless in that clip. More video please!!!
Thanks,
David

Lots of people stood around watching the Hummers take this hill. Before we went up I heard a few of them laughing saying we'd never make it.
I didn't actually get to here them eat there words, but a lot of them ended up following us over to Jeep Eater, which is a monster hill.

More of Jeep Eater. These pictures do some decent justice to this climb. When you slap the Hummer in the picture, everything just looks tiny, but the obstacle is no less difficult.
