Here
are
some
other things
to
consider
as
you
approach
a
hill.
Is
there
a
constant incline, or does the hill get sharply steeper in places?
0
Is
there good traction on the hillside, or will the surface cause tire
slipping?
Is there
a
straight path up
or
down the
hill
so
you
won’t have to make
turning maneuvers?
Are there obstructions on the
hill
that can block your path (boulders,
trees, logs or ruts)?
What’s beyond
the
hill? Is there a cliff,
an
embankment,
a
drop-off,
a
fence? Get
out
and
walk
the
hill
if
you don’t
know.
It’s
the
smart way
to find out.
Is
the
hill simply too rough? Steep hills often have ruts, gullies, troughs
and exposed rocks because they are more susceptible
to the effects of
erosion.
Driving
Uphill
Once you decide you can safely drive
up
the hill,
you
need to take some
special steps.
Use
a
low
gear and get
a
firm
grip
on
the steering wheel.
Get
a
smooth
start
up
the
hill
and try
to
maintain
your speed. Don’t
use
more power than you need, because you don’t want your wheels to start
spinning
or
sliding.
Try to drive straight
up
the
hill
if
at
all
possible. If
the
path twists and
turns,
you
might
want to
find
another route.
Ease
up
on your speed
as
you approach the top
of
the hill.
Attach a flag to the vehicle
to
make you more visible to approaching
traffic
on
trails or hills.
