>>1185726>we ran down the trail as best as we could and got to the car>the car either slid or was pushed to the side of the road, it was 17°F so the roads were icy as hell>spent 2 hours digging the car out with a windshield scraper and a few sticks>eventually free the car and push it out>start driving down and car slides off the road as we go up a small hill>car gets stuck again so we decide to hike to town to see if anyone can pull us out>3 miles later we arrive and there's no one>the fire department is dilapidated, and a nice 2012 fire truck sat blanketed in snow and ice>80% of the homes are abandoned and boarded up, most of the places are summer homes>there's dead silence and any vehicles that are here are broken down or snowed in>it felt like it was from the twilight zone>find a few shovels and a lever winch>hike back and begin to unfuck the car for a few hours>as we drive back to town we drop off the stuff we borrowed>start hearing the way we came, but the ice on the roads makes us unable to go up>try heading up the hill 6 times>then back and take another road>spend another 3 hours driving on backroads looking for a highwayThe entire way home, even on the highway we didn't see anyone, it felt like a dream the next morning. It was so surreal
