Yup I know. You missed a good run on Sunday tho with Rich. We took a few trails nobody took all weekend long, AND were out of there before 2.

Dano: what trails were those ?

Mostly alot of small loops, like Bunny Trail...that's the short loop off of coal road by the staging area. We also took Bypass...that's the one I suggested to you to take, and we did a few smaller loops around Doe Run.

What was the final truck count?

I believe the final truck count was around 40. There were some who just never showed up, and some who cancelled a day or two before. Had that not happened, it might have topped 50...not really sure. Swampy would know for sure.

(I just know at the campground, I counted 37, and there were a few people staying at a hotel).

The amazing thing about Sunday was that almost everyone left which left only a few of us out there. But somehow we all managed to all backup and meet at Spare Tire Creek, including a whole jeep group and 3 ATV riders ;p

After ECXC, I was on (driving) vacation through the East coast, into the Maritimes (NS, NB...) and over to Newfoundland. I just got home after almost a month on vacation, so this post is a little late...

ECXC was great, looking forward to it again next year. Big thanks to Oleg for a great job spotting me on a lot of obstacles...he even got me through the rock swamp without even hitting a slider!

I usually walk on water, but that day there was a cable crossing about 100' up the stream.
