HILL CLIMBING

HILL CLIMBING
I have a hill on my property I need to know how to determine if my H2 can safely climb it or not. I have to know because once down there is no other way back up. I want to go down there to cut up all the dead trees for firewood. What are the general criteria one uses to determine if an H2 can climb a particular hill? Thanks, Edgar

NEW UPDATE FRIDAY 12/5
Hi everyone and thanks for the replies. I will go out and measure the slope of the hill and provide additional data hopefully this weekend when I get a minute. And maybe try to post some photos too if I can figure out how. I just joined the forum and am learning how to use it.
Thanks and check back in a couple days for an update.
THANKS MUCH GUYS!

RE: HILL CLIMBING
Well, you will be very impressed at what it can do. Is it steap or mud or sand, ect. If its mud, any 4x4 may have a slippery time. I love to play with mine as much as I can. dirt hills don't bother me at all. The truck is 4 tons of pissed off steal and plastic. It just grabs the ground and rips it a new one. Your H2 is prob. licking its chops for a chance to jump down there and serve its master. Whats the worst that can happen. a $50 buck towing bill would be worth having the fun getting it stuck. I'm sure we can all pitch in a few bucks as long as you post some pictures...

Hello Friend,
You may want to consider purchasing an "INCLINOMETER".
See photos.
As a rule of the thumb, your vehicle should not exceed a tilt angle of 30°.
I purchased mine through EBAY. Just type in the Ebay search engine "INCLINOMETER".
