My only experience with snow driving was in 1951 when I started up the Sandia mountains near Albuquerque. I was driving very carefully in my brother's '51 and keeping it on 20 m.p.h. was doing fine until I looked and the trees beside me weren't moving and then started moving backwards. I aimed the back bumper at a tree close to the road and then bro. and I got out and pushed the front end around then went back down the hill. Incidentally I never did get to the top of that hill, well really a mountain, about 9,000 ft. elevation, but the '51 did get us down safely.
