Not sure if this is really "wheeling",  but might qualify.
 
After a decent snow,  I took the '2A in woods behind the house to play and work.
 
I was cutting a new trail,  but at one point, on fairly steep hill, the right rear tire got caught on a fallen tree under the snow.  . .  I kept trying to get moving forward,  but progressively got into more trouble, sliding to the right . . eventually it was time to pull out the winch cable,  to avoid any body damage.
 
The photo does not show how steep, or how close the trees are.   The Jeep kept sliding to passenger side.  It has small trees just inches from right-front tire,  and bigger tree not far from tailgate.  It was stuck Ouch
 
 
Photo after the winch pulled the '2A over the log.  It is not that visible,  but is about 12" in diameter behind the Jeep

I don't think the motor pool boss is going buy off on that being "for official use only".

Love it!!

450 acres of pure off road fun, since that trip it has been chewed up by the rock crawler crowd, but still fun in northern Alabama.

Here's an old picture of mine. It's been four wheeled for 25-ish years. It's evolved into a more extreme trail rig now. But I intend to four wheel and explore the back roads with the new build. I can't wait to travel the old roads in the near future!

No places to wheel where I am, used to be a few but not any more. The power lines and gas lines are lines are all gated. Do anything within 100' of a wetland and you go to jail. Some of beaches on the national seashore are open but not all the time. We used to be able to go out there any time in the off season for free, now more gates.
