“I’ve got a Jeep. I can drive anywhere!”
Har, har har! So here’s how I spent the first part of my Yosemite weekend: digging the snow out from under my axles with a folding trench shovel the size of a coffee spoon.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad to have had the shovel. No matter how easy it looks on film, you can’t count on the mechanics of a rope and a tree to help you unstuck a stuck Jeep.
