Did This Mud Hill Beat My Subaru Forester?

Three attempts on the same hill. A steep mud climb in Ghost Wilderness, loose on top, rutted at the base, and slippery enough that the first run didn't stick. Spun out near the top, came back down, read the terrain, and went again. This is what off-road actually looks like with an off-road built 2004 Subaru Forester SG. No shortcuts — just figuring it out, the best line up the trail.
