Talking 491 on 10-3!

After what feels like 40 days and 40 nights of rain, we decided to move our 491 trip back a week.

The early roster is Nick, Jamie, Ryan from TORC and me.

The more the merrier!

It was a muddy mess last trip.. Got the video to prove it.

Course certain wheelers with brand new winches may want to go muddin'..

Theres a big difference in wheeling and muddin'.... I'm for wheeling in the mudd and in all weather conditions.

I don't like Muddin'.... It's not fun to me. You spend more time winching and hours of cleaning the mudd off the jeep. ( Last time I had 6 hours of cleaning)

Thats not to say I never go muddin' Just not today.

Huh, I guess I'm just the opposite.

I didn't mind the mud. We've done it sloppy as hell, and had a blast.

I just didn't want to wheel/winch/recover in the rain.

I'd rather wheel in the snow than the rain...

Cleaned up the garage.

Completely agree, snow wheeling is awesome...

And if you have heat it's even better...


Man I miss wheeling.

The rig is loaded .

Should be a muddy good time and worth a mention at the meeting...
Based on the temperature you all won't see my swimming shorty-shorts.

Had a blast!

Just enough mud to keep it interesting, and just enough carnage to show we were there.

Helluva weekend!

Da Rockies got muddy..

It was a blast guys .. Thanks for the bail out on the mud hole that swallowed me...

It took three winches to get me out . Mine to pull me forward,Robert's to pull me side ways away from the swamp, and Ryan's to pull me out... Jamie's was on stand by...

Awesome time at the 491

Nick
