Good times. no pics from me, story to come later (maybe.) Nick and I shouldn't wheel together.

Joe is thinking about going the second weekend in aug. so how about it nick.

Yah...matt and i wheeling together always ends up with some sort of stupidity and it's awesome times. 2nd week of august is fine by me.

We ran a lot of trails and it was a great day, i had a blast. We did otter's in about 10 min then i spent 20 min on the trail i decided to blaze after otter's like a moron. We ran stout, otter's, trail 20, went back and did pitman rock (we all made it on the easier side) then went over to cv trail and did the hard climb and i got a little over excited on the notch. Looking at the picture you might wonder what the hell i was thinking but MATT was spotting me so it was all good. Seriously though it was going great...well except the beginning when the front end picked up and i almost flipped over backwards. Then i was pretty sideways and climbing but the right rear hooked and pushed me to climb high left and flop. I actually tried to drive it out on it's side but then my brain started working again. Now i know what NOT to do the next time I try it!!

Here's the pics:

Great pics..

x2 on some great pics, i'm having wheeling withdraws real bad now.

Me too, been too long since I've been up there. Think I'm going up next week.

Very nice pics, was that at the stair step area?

We ran stair step at the end of the day but took no pics. The V is at the top of CV trail. The pic where Dozer got pretty sideways was coming up the back side of the comp course that we came to name "challenge hill" because Chris tries to conquer the big stuff everytime he's there (and fails) I think it might be trail 3 but i'm not sure if that's the trail that is next to it that we came down.

i pretty much flopped on CV after i hit the throttle instead of the brakes lol. tree bent my roof in then i drove out of it

Here's a short vid of pitman rock i slapped onto you tube

Nice...but did your Jeep fart right after it made it up pitman rock?

Something in the back hit the pressure release valve on the air tank
