Do M/T Tires Really Work?

Mud-Terrain Tire Traction, Is There Such A Thing?

I was looking around for action photos of mud and ran across some images I took on a trail run just outside of Roseburg, Oregon. If my memory serves me correctly, not a single mud-terrain type tire in the group was able to gain traction in this thick as clay mud. Every brand of tire was on this run! Progress on the trail was made by winching and snow-bashing like driving techniques. Rev the engine to the moon and get a running start. This was an extremely interesting day, and made some cool tire pottery. I can’t wait to hit this trail again.

It took almost an hour to get 10 Jeeps through this section of trail!
