Destination: Snow Line

Via 6 hours total drive time and 4 hours of physical body challenge on foot with husky. I am sore in strange places and am late for the first day back after four off. I almost died in the UN Montero on the fire road named Roseboro in a left hand big switch back when the snow was so deep and crusted with ice that I became stuck in a bad spot leaning hard to the inside and down. I had to think really hard on the best mechanical way out and fortunately that planned worked. Roseboro to the parkway was impassible by my 4wd car so I turned around and made it to the parkway via Edgemont, another fire road that seemed in slightly better condition. Fear. I leave you with imagery and maybe tomorrow I will have a better detailed report from the field above the Blue Ridge Parkway.
