Had a great time out there. It was a little cold, dipped down into the single digits once or twice but we stayed alive.
Had 3 trucks thursday and friday and had a fourth show friday night for saturdays wheelin.
The wheelers were: Stealth4X4 (John and Mel), AVSfreak (Jay), MrDoug (Doug), and myself.


While I was there we ran:
--Hells Revenge, everybody did Hells Gate as well.


--Cliffhanger


--The Trifecta which consists of: Poison Spider, Golden Spike, and Gold Bar Rim.


Apparently wednesday before I got there Jay and John were running Behind The Rocks and ended up on Pritchett. I believe there were two CV's lost that day.
The rest of the trip there wasn't much more carnage. There was my bumper breaking and Jay throwing another CV. But thats it. Nothing huge and everyone was able to make it home just fine.

We camped just off of the Behind The Rock trail. A little bit south of town but nestled away inside a small canyon. Great spot. Wish it was warmer though.
Had turkey dinner on thursday night which was awesome. Everything came out perfect! Turkey, Stuffing, Gravy, Baked potatoes, biscuits.. Everything!

Anyway.. on to the pics.

:wabbit2:

 

WOW!! great pics man , love to go out there sometime .. thanks for the pics .

 

That last picture is amazing man. You drove all the way up there from So-cal? How was the trek? lol

 

WOW!
Totally cool!
My brother was down there near the Book Cliffs and said it was cold cold.

 

Awesome pictures man. The scenery is way nice.

How long was the drive if you dont mind me asking. lol

 

Freakin awesome man!!! I miss that place

 

Cool Scuba..
Golden Crack is a goal someday...hopefully before it all gets closed down

 

Wasn't too bad getting there. 12 hours/ 730 miles is nothing compared to 22 hours and 1330 miles.

Yep it was cold for sure. Dipped into the single digits a couple of the nights. Friday and Saturday night it started warming up. We were shedding layers when we realized it was only 27.

Love the scenery for sure. Bout 12-13 hours getting there. Bout 15-16 getting back. Damn snow was clogging the road.



Glad you guys enjoyed the pics. I still need to upload them in FULL resolution. Photobucket PRO for the win!

 

Damn, helluva a drive. Wonder what it would be like from Nor Cal. lol Looks like quite an amazing place. I'm still drooling over that last picture. that's really amazing.

Whats your plans for a rear bumper now? heh

 

I actually just got done re attaching it. Prepped it up a bit better then before and made a few triple pass welds. Going to reinforce it soon. If it goes anywhere after that I'll start over.

 

Looks like fun Steve!!!

 

very nice man. love that last pic

 

Haha, Is that a Wise Man in the bed of your truck?

 

yes.
