Cool Nor-Cal Jeepers Jamboree on the Rubicon

I'll do this in sections by day or event, as I have a ton of photos
...So here we go

We came in late (around 9:30ish) and the place was like a deserted island.
It was actually really cool to see the trail this way
We missed breakfast & lunch but that was okay because we brought plenty of drinks & snacks
This is before the Gate Keeper if I recall.
Note how crowded it is






Made it past gate keeper unscathed



Moving along and still nobody



At last! we caught up to a Toyota and TJ... They were cool and it was actually a relif at this point






Tricky little spot... made it through just fine



Past soup Kitchen (I think), we ran into a hold up and found more rigs.
One of them happened to be cyruspura and his group





Cool poser shot just before Little sluice (could be wrong though)



Slight delay, 2 rigs up ahead had flats...



Enjoying the view while we wait




Back on track- everyone is rolling... Well, most everyone anyway







I jumped ship- wasn't into getting dowsed


Buck Island here we come!



Beautiful!



More to come, I need a few to get them posted


Stay tuned

Cool More of Day one

Into the Big Sluice




That rock decided to borrow some paint from my Jeep






First battle scar ever
Oh well~ You know what they say, it only hurts the first time




Flashing forward a second for a silly poser shot of damage assessment
These are for you rampage





The infamous bridge.
"Are we there yet?"



We thought it wise not to take this route



We made it

Mechanics station has some work ahead of them



The famous cabin with the talking deer



Stay tuned I have more-
A Dentist appointment is awaiting.

Yes- we never got the relocation track bar bracket before, so R.E. handled that and all the bushings . (which were blown at Hellhole now that I am noticing by sound)
All good

Alright...
Here we go on day 2
