Eagle Lakes/Fordyce - 6/7/10
Met up with Dark_Fairytales and went up to Eagle Lakes and then a little ways into Fordyce. Due to lack of armor and some clutch problems from having to ride the clutch so much in the rocks with no gears, we had to turn around about a quarter mile down Fordyce so we continued up Eagle Lakes. After we were done, Dark_Fairytales headed out and I went back up Fordyce and met up with some guys that I had met before and saw on the trail earlier, they actually helped me get unstuck at the beginning of driveshaft hill, hopefully there's a picture of that somewhere lol. Anyways here are some of the better pictures that I got:









I didn't take too many pictures, but hopefully Dark_Fairytales will have some more to add, I know his buddy took alot of pictures.

after all that rock stacking. the tires just pushed the rocks out of the way. 89silverpu yota made it up the obstacle all by its self, no rock stacking needed.
after wading in the water to check for depth, 89 went through the water. at the end you can hear the water trapped in the exhaust.

after 89 and I split our ways. I headed back to the staging area to air up and hit the hwy home. I had to get a poser vid. just so i could see my yota on video too.

ill add the pics later, i have to sort through all 153 of them and pick the best ones.
It was good to finally get to meet up with you 89silverpu. im hoping to get the dual cases in on a timely fashion. ill be working on looking into armor at the same time. then ill be ready for the Rubicon, Fordyce, and Hell hole.
I did make it home fine, no problems.
