Bravo! great to hear that there are other MB drivers going into rough country with there cars. We live in the Coastal Mts. of Oregon
(Siuslaw National Forest ) I put a good set of snow tires on my 74 240D and go where others fear to tread, sometimes get rather odd looks from other hunters when they see a classic baby blue Mercedes on a jeep road, I love it old "Pearl" will growl up steep grades with the best of them.
I keep Goldie my 81 SD shined up for town trips....
