Big Dogs Ice Breaker April 30 - May 1, 2011

Good wheeling weekend! A little rain Sunday but no worries. Long story short:
Nick took the crew wheeling Friday night, got lost, eventually returned with the rest of the crew.
Enjoyed a nice campfire with lots in attendance.
Wheeled Saturday late morning. Ran Xtreme and took about 4 hours, was really dug out and wet.
Some bailed, some winched. Went back to camp for some chow and right back out. Taught Casey how to drive the YJ, he did alright and drove me from camp to staging and back a couple times. Then drove from camp to Bunny trail without incident Sunday.
Sunday ran Bunny, Nick did very well with his new setup, had it on it's side but drove out of it, no winching and nothing broken.
Ryan busted a rear shaft, rocks were wet and slid him sideways and hit a rock that put a dent in the sheetmetal shaft that comes stock. Then it just twisted in half. Made for an interesting extraction.
Had a great time, good showing, good food, Awesome!

I had a blast!! Thanks to EVERYONE for everything....for the diagnosing and wrenching help, for the spotting, for the food and grill space, and for all the advise and education. I'm gonna chalk that weekend up in the 'win' column (so that makes me 1 for 3), and I'm glad I got to share with ya'll.
