I had a blast guys... Mind you I for some reason keep towing people during the meetings for what I was really supposed to have been doing. Otherwise it was great.

Has anyone heard from Ted? ... I left him with a pretty badly beat up rig on the pavement before the event and he was gone when a few of us went back to check on him. He some how blew the cover off his front diff, set off his side curtan air bags, and "enlarged" his dent in his door. I hope he made it home... The plan was for him to drop his skid and pull his driveline out so the front diff was no longer functional and limp home. I hope he made it.

Chase, Sheila, Gorgie, Alex, and me all stayed Saturday night too... The water was nice, the night was great... We didn't even need a fire. We did have two skunks come into camp while we were up and one after we went to bed.

Gorgie busted a swaybar mount... But me and Sheila escorted her home just incase that wasn't her only clunking sound she had saturday afternoon.m Sunday we came across a Chevey 3500 that messed up his seating linkage real good. We winched some of the brakes back to a not so bent shape... Re-adjusted his tow and limped him the 8 miles to pavement. The guy wasn't too thankful... And to think they had been stranded with a 4yr old over night already.

And as for Sheila... Man she drove off the side of the trail coming up the hill from cove four and almost took a hell of a roll (would have put adams adventure to shame). I had to disconnect from the Chevy... Race around the hill to another down hill... Fly down it and back up behind her... Fastest thing I could get to her was the winch line... While I was racing Gorgie and Chase when olding on to her rear bumper trying to keep her from mtipping or sliding. Even with the winch I couldn't get her back on the trail and she had drug me about 10ft towards her... Chase had to do a 180 in front of her with no space to turn and grab her with another tow strap. Some pulling, winching, shoveling... And alot of hopping... We got her back on the trail in once peice. The speed she has to use right not only having 2wd, at the top she hit a real deep bump on the begining of a turn... So she didn't turn and bounced right over the edge. Her entier front was over the edge, one rear tire about a foot or more off the ground and the other rear was the only thing keeping her on the trail. Thanks Chase and Gorgie, and the couple of Jeep guys that raced over to help out too. That could have ended very badly and everyone walked away smiling at the end.

I don't have many pics... And The laptop will be on its way to HP probably tomorrow... I'll try to post some pics in the coming weeks when I get my laptop back.
