Yep, another Yankee Hill Run

Well a few of us ran Yankee Hill again, it was Crux, JonathanG32, and a buddy of his Kenny, in a 1985 flatbed pick up, and Josh rode shotgun with Jon (thankx for dinner )
You couldnt have asked for a better day, great weather, warm enough for shorts, but still had some slow piles, well on the the pics.

Had a great time getting out real quick this weekend.
Got to test out the winch, front and rear bumpers and even the sliders on a couple rocks.

I didn't take many pics, but here's a few from the snow bank we were attempting to launch over.

Ric breaking the first trail over the snow pile


Not quite enough, stuck in the snow


Getting tugged back out


Kenny going for it!


Almost made it, but got high centered


Getting tugged over the other side


Jon making a run at it


Some nice scenery before heading back

Thnx Dekri!

It was good to get up to the mountains - it had been awhile.

Hopefully I can get out a few more times this summer, but I've got tons of work still lined up and a baby on the way, so we'll see...
