Dan blew a line off his tranny cooler and ran out of fluid at the entrance of the orange trail.
We came out of the woods to ATV hell and Dan got towed back to the parking lot.
We got his line re-seated (I think), but they didn't have any Chrysler ATF at the building. Woodweavil and Dan went to town for some fluid. We went back to the orange trail and never could raise Woodweavil on the radio. We don't know the status of Dan's Jeep. Scooter Scott was supposed to meet up with Woodweavil regarding a bumper.

Teaser pics from today......
Ryanclimbs posed for this awesome pic.
He will probably post later.
I wanted to join the fun, so I went to the same rocks.
Weavil stopped me when the rear bumper started dragging.
(Ryan's tires and bumper had a distinct advantage, but I didn't let that stop me!)

I was REALLY careful; on this trip and only turned on the front locker a couple times all day!

Your tires and vehicle position made a better photo op, though.
My next upgrade should probably be a rear bumper.
I wedged my receiver under a rock ledge and HighRoller had to give me a little straight-up boost before I could go backward.
I gave the Jeep a preliminary wash tonight and the rear bumper has more than one kiss of contact from this weekend.

Hey, Scooter.
I had 3 inches of standing water in the jack stowage area. (still had the plug in it, but took it out tonight to let the water out)
My front floor is a stinking mess.
I'm thinking I got a little deeper in that one hole I backed out of than I thought.
