Default 2019 Sweetheart Ride

On the 17th we went out to 4x4 Life in St. Francisville, LA for the 2019 sweetheart ride. The folks at 4x4 Life and Louisiana 4x4 did a great job putting it together and guiding everyone on the trails. 40-50 jeeps showed up, and they split everyone up into 3 groups (Stock/no experience, modified/experienced, and heavily modified/lots of experience) to make the ride more efficient and fun. Splitting into 3 groups allowed everyone to stay in their comfort zone and/or not be limited by drivers/jeeps at different levels.

It had rained for a couple days before the ride so the trails were very slick. There were a few obstacles where some people had to winch through. One jeep got a little excited and went on the side, but no one got hurt and damage was very minimal. Someone said his jeep was tired from the previous obstacle and just needed a nap.

I don't have many pics because I forgot to change my SD card out before the ride, but I will add more if I get some from someone else.

he said he swung too wide and went too fast. I was about 6 jeeps in front of him. There was a pretty deep rut right there so I guess maybe he got off in there.

Bet the right front started up that bank when the left rear dropped into rut.
