I think I hit the end of the trail right about 5:30pm, and by the time I got back to town it was pretty much dark.

Hey Scott, I assume your leaf spring held togather pretty good the rest of the day. Did it loosen up much by the end of the day?

Sure did, the leaf tried to walk out but a tap here there pushed it back, heck I turned around and ran D/H Sunday on it.

what a day!!!! Thanx to everyone who put onthe event. Great job scott. Rich what did you end up doing to get home? EZ the plugs held, but if you remember we thought the bead was leaking a little lower, nope it was another cut. We didn't have anymore plugs so we aired up about every ten minutes the rest of the way out. This was my first time to meet most of you. Those in front I never really got up there but the back half had a blast. We should change the name of that trail to tire alley!! I never got a chance to thank whoever was in the brown cherekee for leading us back to the fair grounds. Update to carnage... the jeep is in the shop now! rear end failure. will know tonight the extent.. probably spider gears. oh well thank heavens for a warranty! If anyone has pics of my gold jeep please post them up or email them themannelson@yahoo.com.
Lets do this again real soon!!!!!!

Looks like a pretty cool trail. Thats the one we wanted to do but didnt think the guy with us should test out his new ride on it. But we had a great time on diffhanger.
