Ha, I didn't think anybody here much cared...

We had a blast. Took it pretty easy in the morning, we had a couple inexperienced drivers and a couple untested rigs.

After lunch, with our confidence up, we ventured into the ravine at the far west corner, by the train tracks. That, was a mistake.

We spent four hours getting everyone back out again. By the time we were done, we'd seen three flat tires, a broken axleshaft, a destroyed front diff, a serpentine belt, a blown air compressor, one shredded tow strap and an assortment of taillights and fender flares.

But it was still a blast. The weather was about perfect, and we all hung together, and worked together, to get everybody out safe.

There's a ton of pics on facebook, I'll try n crosspost some later.
