Nice pics looks like a sweet trip. Can I ask what type of front bumper you are running and where you got it?

Thanks, Gord

Cool! My bro lives in Mercer, and I used to live in mercer for like 4 years back when I was 6 yrs old! I love it up there, the surrounding areas are awesome! I also have family in Grove City.

Thanks, the bumper is built by my room mate, my dad, and me! We built it right before the trip.

Bridge is over the New River Gorge, I took the old route over the wooden bridge to see it from below, it is simply stunning. Every year they close it for a day so people can jump off of it with parachutes.
Looks like a fun trip overall.


To be picky, you are folding your sunrider wrong.

^ Every year they have "Bridge Day", I have been to it several times, and it is a blast!! My stomach rolls standing looking over the side, I couldn't imagine base jumping from it!! The New River is great for white water rafting, they have some Class 5 rapids in some parts!!

Looks like a fun trip!! I use about 20 mi from Gatlinburg and was just down there last year, it's a nice little get away!!

See you were up in my neck of the woods. I used to go rapelling at M. Mills too. Not much time these days with the kids. Glad you had fun!
