Browns Camp 6/14 review...

what a great weekend....

Ashley, dustin and i met Elton saturday evening. got to camp and setup.

woke up the next morning, and started breakfast and i ran down to lyda camp to meet everyone. everyone arrived by 1015 or so. headed back to the campsite to all me to eat, everyone aired down and folks unloaded trailer'd rigs.

we started down Archers Firebreak starting from the top side of rockgardedn (just past waterfall). ran all of archers till the end. we then ran over to Canopner. put a small dent in the front bumper using a rock and made my gas tank a little more "low profile". we then ran around to show ever a possible camp site for the 26th run... then headed to waterfall. i attempted it first, and put a good dent in my passenger fender then backed down to try a differnt line and ended up breaking a birf. Swapped89 had to winch up the waterfall face.

headed back to camp for lunch and me to fix the birf. (hour and a half trail fix isnt too bad ) some decided to roll out, and some continued wheelin. overall a very fun run. great people, great weather, great wheelin.
all pics are here: http://photography.eakland.net/v/whe...-_browns_camp/

here are best of pics

I'll add mine, mostly I took video while driving though. Had no right seat cameraman!





Photobucket's being a lil slow with the videos, I'll post them up tomorrow or somethin.

Edit: This was the only vid I took worth sharing

Most of the really tough spots out there have trails around them. Canopener for example takes about 5 minutes to run around the hill and go from the bottom to the top. It's a pretty gnarly hill in the rain when it's muddy. I sucked some seat cushion on the winch on that one huh Chris!

Nice pics and videos guy's.

Nice to see Elton got out with you too.

Or learn how to drive without using so much clutch

I like my dual cases better than tearing up my clutch
