So i went up to Alabama for christmas break to visit the relatives, found a great clay hole(There is no "dirt" in alabama=no mud). Apparently this spot is where a semi sits when its not in use and it compacted the clay down to where the water never seeps out of it, so there is always a perpetual 3-4 feet of standing water mixed over the clay. Ran the atv's through it mostly, however i did run the ranger through a couple times using speed. I figured a 2wd ranger would get stuck instantly if i tried to push through it.

me neither, how did he get that stuck without getting a single drop of water on those purdy blue jeans? i like the hat though, it looks warm!
 
When i usually go through the deep holes, i just keep it in low gear with diff lock on and put my feet up under the bars. I didnt feel like getting soaked and ruining my only pair of shoes i brought up there with me. Those were also my only pair of jeans, i dont wear them unless its crazy cold outside.
 
Most people say its freezing around 50/55 but i wont wear pants unless its about 30/35 out. Shorts FTW.
