flexing on the steps on C

JT doing the same. I wonder what the steps are from?

different line on Yellow Jacket

another one of the same

got my tire about a foot off the ground. couldn't do more with open diffs, and this is the only pic to show any air at all

little off camber here. glad I saw the post on the Rausch Creek forum, because I never would have thought to try running it over this far

JT running the same line. his front locker let him get up much higher than me

different angle

and one from the other side showing his suspension all twisted up

this one is the money shot from that obstacle

poser shot on Boot Hill. just ignore my tie rod sitting on the rock. I stopped when I hit it and figured it was too good of a pic to move it

rear view of the same thing

JT in one of the bowls on Boot Hill

another one in the bowls

Lake Christy

tried to get a little artsy with this one by showing a little of the Jeep in the pic.

JT coming down Yellow Jacket

stopped on 6A

JT's shock he busted on 6A

Unimog interior

here's the whole Mog. really would have liked to wheel in his group just to see how it would do

what used to be Blake's YJ

Becky busted on the access road with a front axle that wouldn't engage

stuck on 13B

carnage on 13B. suprised that the LCA skid would bend that easily

KJ stuck on 13B

flexed on 13B

JT on the hard line on 13B

me on Rock Creek

further down the creek

think I was getting stuck a little in this one

can't figure this one out. JT was taking pics from outside the Jeep, but this one if obviously from inside

Rock Creek

my favorite from the series

little flex

almost the same shot

another simular one

and some with the background

wasn't sure how I would do on Rock Creek, so I told JT to take a ton of pics. by this point, it's obvious that he did. so, thanks JT

couldn't figure out why I was getting stopped, so I had to get out and look. with all the rocks, I never saw this one

and one without me in the pic

it took me a few minutes to run it, so I figured it would take Stu the same. by the time I took a sip of water and got out to take a pic, he was almost done

$he made a joke out of Rock Creek, until the last few feet. this is him stuck in the rear with the drivers side tire a fraction of an inch off the ground. what you can't see are both front tires are also off the ground$

since Becky only made it a few feet onto the trail, we felt it necessary to at least get her a few poser shots

the better of the two shots

this is what happens when you run Rock Creek. Stu and JT had this transfer case removed, another one delivered and then installed that night. he was back on the trai Sunday

JT's pile of carnage

Stu getting tired of his rear bumper rubbing

breaking out the Sawzall on the trail

the NOVA magnet I found on 13B. I liked it, but ended up losing it on the highway on the ride home

Crawler Ridge. this obstacle makes for some of the best pics

flex

simular pic

notice the massive sag in the rear from running without rear shocks all weekend. those leaf springs are toast.

Was a great time.

Checked out the South side on Friday with JT. Trails were cool, although the loose rocks from not being run much made things challenging.

Saturday was interesting since we only managed to run half a trail. Out of six rigs, we lost one on the access road, one on 13, and one on Rock Creek. I did manage to run maybe 75 yards of Rock Creek open/open on 32's, so I was pretty happy with that.

Pretty impressed that JT and Stu managed to not only manage to get Stu's destroyed transfer case pulled, but also get another one delivered and installed so he could get it back on the trails for Sunday.

Took it easy on Sunday due to the weather. Ran 4, Yellow Jacket, 2, Crawler Ridge, and the 3's. Covered some good ground, and still managed to get home early.
