A photo of us going up a hill on Ft. Hood back in the October Rally.
The forward vehicle, a Ferret got to the top but could not make it over the rock ledge.
There were four of us in our vehicles trailing the Ferret. The rest of the vehicles were back down the hill. There was no room on the narrow path for the Ferret to turn around easily. I was third in line with an GPW in front of me.
There was a M38 behind me.
So I backed down to the right of the other M38 which was behind me. To try and make some room for the GPW and Ferret. After the Ferret moved over to the inside it made room enough for us to go around him.
We were about half way up the hill.
The GPW proceeded and made it over the top.
Then I took my M38 over the top. It was fairly steep with mostly loose rock on the path.
The M38 behind me stalled and did not make it any further.
The M38 with trailer and the Ferret finally got turned around and we all went back down and called it quits. And went back to camp.
It was three day rally with display on the post and driving on the reservation. We had a good time.
