This is such an awesome rock outcropping, it sucks that people have painted it.

After coming back down we all stopped at a local recreation area on the lake and had Lunch. Ken had found a trailer and was going to be staying behind. After lunch we motored on.

On the road again

in many places we went it barely looked like fall

we had just hit gravel again when I heard over the CB that something was up with Crystal's jeep.

We checked under the rear of the jeep and found that the rear aftermarket trackbar bracket had ripped off. By some stroke of luck Marcus and Tripp noted that we had just past a shop with a bunch of guy standing outside with jeeps parked around. So we sent two jeeps back to see if we could get it welded up at their shop. About 20 minutes later we heard on the CB that they got it fixed and were on their way back up the road. Only 30-40 minutes lost on that fix. Not bad at all.

Somehow Jimbo managed to get his cruiser stuck and break off his exhaust in a mud hole, luckily he had a battery powered sawzall packed in the back.

It was getting late and we started looking for campsites. We were a bit behind schedule but having tons of fun.

So it appears that Larry's trailer prevented him from going on any of the trails? or just no pics?

He wasnt there on friday when we did the first two trails. He did stay back at the bottom of the overlook trail, but he ran everything else saturday. Hes in a few of those pics.
 
finally got to wash the jeep yesterday a little. I left for a fishing trip last Wednesday so I didn't have time last week. I didn't realize how muddy my jeep was. Those last mud holes we went through when trying to find the campsite Saturday night were like concrete mud.

Youtube and US Copyright laws make adding music to this stuff so damn difficult. I had to take one track out already because it wasn't on the Good to go List for YouTube.
