Met up with more trucks than I expected a little later than usual at the park, 9 am, because of hunting season.
It turned out that Anthony and I where the only two that had been to the park recently so the only two that could lead. With a number of new folks there we had to split up into a ?Green? and a ?Blue? group. Anthony volunteered to lead the ?Green? and even though I called him a fag I?m really glad he did. The only thing I hate doing more than leading a group is leading a ?Green? group. Thank you brother.
We did that cool up and down (1C) off of ?B? that Dave and Anthony punked out on the last time I was out.
Greg and Tim, no problem yo!
Chris and his wife bowl diving!
Then we went over to ?2" and Steve busted his truck on ?Pepper?s? hill near ?Frog Hole?. Steve bounced the truck at the top of the obstacle with the wheels spinning very fast. The wheels caught and BANG! I saw the truck just cresting the top and was taking this picture;
when I heard the bang. I ran up the hill and reached the top in time to see the truck taking a second run at it. Neither of the front wheels was spinning (no four wheel drive). He then backed up into the tree at the base of the hill.
Don?t judge yo, every one who has wheeled more than a few times has done it including me. I must give ?Props? to Steve for his veteran wheeler type attitude toward the damage to his truck. I would have been completely bummed out and most likely have been done for the day whining and cursing all the way home. He took it in stride, hooked up with Anthony?s ?Green? group and wheeled for a few more hours. Way to represent yo!
We met up with Mike and his Sami and I talked him into leading us for a while after we dropped Steve off with the ?Green? group.
Score! I?m not leading!
He led us onto ?Crawler Ridge? that he and Chris did with no trouble but I broke my ass on. Due to my poor driving skill I had to winch out of two spots and busted the lower bolt on my drivers side rear shock.

What?s missing from those Skuderz yo?
After taking off my hanging, useless shock we continued on to the West Property did ?12" and ?10". Lots of fun and stinky mud. Chris popped a bead on ?10" for no apparent reason;
All the mud and water started to affect Mike?s Sami?s steering so he cut out on us saying that he broke my truck so his job was done.
I took the group back to the ?East Property? and we did ?4" including going down ?Yellow Jacket?. I gone up it before but never down, much easier down.

Kenn and then Greg in the bowl at the end of ?4";
The sun was starting to go down so we headed out to the ?Comp? area where I posed;
while the guys messed around, then aired up and went to visit Mike, check on his truck, say hi to Dawn, see the baby (Sam, a real cutie) and let them buy me a adult beverage. Thanks guys!
After a quick shower back at camp, had a great dinner at the Red Lion, a few beers at the cabin and hit the sack. I got back at around noon in time to see the Jets beat up on the fish! A 2 ? hour return trip and beat the storm!
Had a great time (all you posers missed out again) thanks to Anthony putting this together.
