Carnage Creek 04-09-2006

well AxleIke, one of his buddies (great guy) and myself ran Carage yesterday, 04-08-2006 but not to many pics turned out. sorry Issac.
So a Jon and Brandi wanted to run it today, so of corse, I was more than happy to run it with them. seems "everytime" I run this, I get some sort of Carnage, lol. First time was a bent exhaust tip, yesterday it was my washer fluid, and today it was my fender flare "I did buy it to wheel it" lol. wll after trying to one, figure out the new camera, and two, try to learn this new program that came with it, here are a few pics.




and I really like this pic.

Great pics - where's a close up of the fender damage?

Was the trail easier with less ice?

Agreed about being more difficult when it's thawed out.

I got my first real trail damage - I guess I'll be building some sliders next weekend (a week too late)

My friend's brother was taking a lot of video on Saturday, I'll see if I can get some pictures from him.

Yeah I got the All-Pro jobby. I don't want the weight on my truck that you guys are towing. My gears are having a hard enough time as it is.

Ric and I installed an Oasis compressor and two 2.5 gallon tanks on my rig over the last few weekends. It's pretty freaking solid.

I'd like to bob the bed but I don't have the know how or the money to get it done.

The question was: Was it easier with the ice gone.

It was harder, becasue the ice covered all the boulders, so it was like driving on a flat road. The trail isn't all that hard, but it is harder dry than with 3 ft of ice covering everything.

What's your bumper gonna look like Crux? My truck is down there too. I dropped it off 10 days ago. Mine is going to be similar to Rics (on my Taco) but I couldn't afford as nice a winch, and my stinger is gonna be more aggressive. Sorry bout the hijacked thread, lol

Same as Ric's minus the stinger for the front. I had to cut costs so I could get some modifications made to the rear bumper. I'll post pics later this week after I pick it up.

That's looks awesome! Is there a winch mounted behind the license plate too?
Hopefully we can get out on a few runs this summer.
