Ok. 1st off, huge thanks to Tom for all his hard work organizing the Nexterra runs for us "southern" North Easterners.

On to the trip report and pictures.

The green group was running 7 trucks from bone stock to decently modified. The trails were in great condition in the am as we set off. One thing that surprised me was the thickness of the ice in water holes and once you broke through the ice, the water was deeper than normal. About 6-12" deeper. We had a little minor damage in the bypass to "mudhole"(sorry Joe) and on 14(sorry Rob). Shortly before lunch, the snow started falling making the trails slick. We stopped for lunch then continued on up to the playground on pole line. The guys had fun playing around up until I decided to play on a line that is sketchy on a good day. After about an hour of me crapping my pants and the crew coming together to winch me out of there, we made our way out of the park with no more surprises. I felt like it wasn't my best day leading, and I apologize to my group if they didn't have fun. I'll make it up to you guys next time.

Thanks guys. I should also mention that it really sucks doing a bumper swap in 18° weather when you're sick as a dog and have been barfing all night.

The black group started our run on K a green...... like not even 5 min out of the parking lot I had my T-bar Anchor strip out.

After a quick 30 min or so fix we were rolling again. (the one thing I actually know how to fix well, since I have had them apart so many times.)

Headed down the trail to 22, a blue black. My first taste of the harder trails. Hopefully BklynX gets his pictures up soon. Had a few moments were I was wondering what did I get my self into but thanks to Tommy, Kyle, and Damian I worked my way through it.

Tommys truck decided to start making a really loud clunking noise. And at this moment it began to snow. Spent roughly an hour trying to diagnose the sound. Finding a hub that was stuck locked, then finding out it was a bigger problem than what could be fixed on the trail. Something in the front diff.

After lunch we ran some blue trails with BklynX sitting shotgun. Headed to Crawler Ridge where kyle bigger air than he thought.

Stumps were the killer in this group catching mine and Bklyns back axles and having to get pulled off.


Other than this it was an awesome time. Tommy great job and thank you for all you do man. Kyle I had a great time wheeling with you and picking your brain of your wheeling/xterra knowledge. And Damian it was fun as always
