10 Rigs.

Since you weren't there we did Anderson creek. Up the mountain and then out the other side into the park. Had a bone stock, 1,000mi JK 4 door which did make it through everything with a little spotting and skinny pedal. FIRST creek crossing there was a decently sized 'drop off' coming out of the water and somehow the lone YJ lost 4WD. So we had to pull him out. Fast Forward and as with any rig in some spots with 2WD he couldn't make it. I yanked him up the first time and then some bikers were coming down and he had to stop on the hill. Then it wouldn't start(fixed that later). I pulled him the last 1-2 miles up to the clearing. Then out the steeper trail and mud hole into the park. Lodge to pee for the wife and went home. I will safe Sheep Wallow with you Joe... Jenny had to get home and lesson plan for the week.

We had the bone stock 4dr with 1000K miles on the SR/A's. This was my first "real" trail ride that actually required the 4WD, even got to give the "2wd" Jeep it's first pull of the day. What a blast overall!!! My wife and 2 girls went and everyone had a good time.Everyone's patience and willing to help and bare with the rookie is greatly apprciated! Thanks for such a fun day all.

Yeah. You missed me doing an endo! Dstack almost decided to sink his rig mirror deep in muck ... Didn't do it though. As we were heading in a bunch of guys in pickups were towing a broken chevy out. Lots of atvs were buzzing around today.

I was leading and what I thought was solid ground covered with weeds was actually just weeds. My front dropped down off ledge almost 3 feet high and my ass went up in air. I got out of it no problem. Dennis was thinking about driving through mud pit that joey got his dirtbike stuck in.
