this would be an extremely easy run lorentje. nothin too much, you probably wont even need to put in 4WD, maybe once or twice for a few mins. most likely too early for snow.

wish i could, but saturdays are the hardest to get off. some people just left my work too so theres no one to trade with. you guys should have fun, its been raining over here for like the last 2 weeks so there should be some fun stuff to play in.

I think you and your rig did great Especially for a two-wheel drive rig Was it worth the drive?

Thanks to all who made today's run a success and a great time! I appreciate everyone waiting for me when I went off to play on the obscure side trail for a few and I really appreciate how everyone stuck around for the various twists and turns that the itinerary took

I had a great time and it turned out to be just what I had hoped for. A great run with great people. Too bad the mountain was being shy, but that happens. On the plus side, the lake was beautiful and it was an added plus to get to speak to the fire watch on Suntop.

Thanks again for having me as a passenger Rob, your truck was awesome.
Thanks for all showing up today, and Jen, thanks for making the drive up from Portland.

I will not have any pics up until I get my PC fixed which could be quite awhile.
It is not cooperating one bit.

Had a great time, and have to get some late night dinner in me, I am starved

Crash family is now home. All in one piece and probably bed bound soon. lol we are both exhausted. I have a better excuse though since I worked til 3am and had an hour and a half sleep before we left. It was well worth lack of sleep and I'm so excited that I ended up getting the night off. I can't even beging to explain how much fun we had and to meet everyone was wonderful. It turned out to be a really great group. Thanks so much for making us feel so welcome and making it so much fun. We look forward to the next chance to meet up with you all again. I will see if I can get a pic or two up soon also.

Cool Liquid Sunshine

And good company! And plenty of 'Yotas. Trudie & I had a blast.
Great to hook up with friends and meet some new ones.

I concur with what has already been said. T'was a fun trip. Even the kiddo had a good time, once I got her to stop being so darned paranoid about everything.

Kudos to Chris for making that hill climb After seeing you climb that, I can smell a locker in my near future

Family Crash: It was good to have y'all along! You folks are welcome on any outting we have
