    Yeh the best way to approach steep slippery down hills is first low range and drive it down hill making sure you keep your wheels driving and not letting them lock up otherwise it's a quick trip to the bottom. It is hard to get your head around as giving it gas going down isn't the normal thing to do, brakes will get you into trouble and sledging. I have used this method on a slippery wet steep track that my son's mate wouldn't drive his truck down so I did and it didn't even look like slipping, you just have to steer the truck and power on until you reach safe ground, wet or long grass on steep hill sides can be just as dangerous.
