One of Our Worst Fears Comes True! (STUCK on our Gravel Road!) RV Life!

RV Nightmare!

The road up to our cabin is about 1000 ft of gravel and has one particular spot where the grade increases on an almost 90degree turn. This is always a bit nervewracking, but we're not quite as stressed now that we've done it a few times.
But that changed this time as our tires started slipping on that section! We hadn't realized it, but the alternating knobs on our Continental HD3 Hybrids (that came with the truck) were a bit worn down. We still had good tread for normal roads, but they were not more street tires and less "hybrid." That, combined with a gravel road that needed grading, meant there was not enough traction! So, we were STUCK about 500 feet from our cabin!
Several tries later, we were able to get a tow company to come out, get around us, and help us up the hill. All we needed was just a little bit more traction than our tires would give us, and we got up with no problems!
Since that incident, we've changed out our Conti's for Michellin XDS2, and we can feel much better traction on our road. Additionally, we purchased some grading equipment and are taking care of that section of the road ourselves.
