Thank you Rome & Ernie for today's OFR run, has a absolute blast. Still can't believe that we had to deal with snow!!

Here are some pics & videos from today. Still getting used to positioning the video camera right, so the videos are just so-so. And ignore the date, haven't figured out how to set that yet.

Most of this is from the first half/easier half of OFR. Ran out of battery for the second. Will be better prepared next time.

Great pics and videos guys!!! It looks like it was a good time. Maybe one day I'll make it out there once I regear and get a locker or 2.

. A winch too...except for Ernie & TomsRedX, I've not seen anyone make it over the first ledge (gate keeper) without being winched.

I have a 10k Engo, I just haven't pushed the X hard enough to have to use it yet :D .Yeah Ive heard the ledges are tough and especially with snow and the water crossing at the end can be pretty bad.

The water hole at the end that folks used to talk about is a shadow of its old menacing self, much shallower now. Nothing like the headlights submerging heart stopper it used to be.

There there are three other mud/water holes that have gotten quite deep...the water was definitely hitting the bottom of the floor on one of them.
