a few pics from today's run with 16 hummers
airing down.
made it up to 6000 feet. the jeeps behind us quit somewhere around 5000
i love this state - well, except for the bull$hit . . . . . . .
just one of the beautiful views. the pic just doesn't do it justice, but it's the best i've got.

chris, before you rag on me, i learned that if you connect the winch control and lay it on the dash before you hit the snow - you'll never need it.

we had a fair amount of recovery work on the trip. if you got off the center of the road you sank in pretty deep, there was anywhere from 3 to 4' of snow on the road. we had a few trucks up to the rockers and resting on the skidplates. in all it was a great run, good group of people and a good mix of hummers.
no ground squirrels this trip - but we saw 3 deer on the scout run last weekend

If the trail has much difficulty to it 16 is a lot of trucks. Takes awhile to get them all through so you spend a lot of time spotting/waiting. On an easy run the number of trucks isn't much of an issue. I know what you mean though, get more people involved.

Hey Lester, it was great going out with you again. I had a blast. We missed you at dinner! Hope to see you soon again.

mark, it was good to finally see ya back out on the trails. i was a cranky old bastard by the time we were airing up, i wouldn't have been much fun at dinner. i got tired of waiting for everyone to get over that stump at the end so i turned around and went back the way we came in.
hey screwed, i think Mark is the only other member here that was on the trip. if there were other members along they were in stealth mode.

I hear ya Lester... it was getting a little slow on the way back. Next time we go out we definately need to find a place where we can roam around, have fun getting sideways and muddy at the same time! :)
