Ha, ha........Gator looks like he's saying; "break down....break down, go ahead....break down and you're mine."

or..."Mmmmmmmm.....Hummer, hard on the outside...soft on the inside."

I went out again today.

The water had receded and I was able to run the trail I was afraid to previously.

Ironically enough there was a gator in the water.

Needless to say, I was glad I didn't get stuck...

Great pics. Looks like fun. It would be a good idea to run with a buddy though.

Cool pics!! It's annoying how all the dirt accumulates on the front of the rear tirewell.

You're absolutely right.

My girlfriend accompanied me on my frist trip, and it was on a Saturday, so there were plenty of people there.

This time, I went alone and was probably the only person in the park. I was getting a little braver to boot.

There was a one lane construction road built up with rocks that was surrounded by water on both sides that traversed the entire park. I was travelling down it and eventually had to turn around. I got one wheel off the path and into the water, and I sank like I rock into this nasty, super thick mud. My heart was racing as I knew I did not have winch point, nor anyone else to help me out. Luckily, I was able to lock up the rear and reverse out, otherwise, I may have spent the night there...

I think I would be a little un-easy to attempt to go in the water knowing the gator was there and to get stuck. Thanks for sharing the pics!!!!!!!!

Offroading alone isn't advisable even without the gator.

Don't you just love the water lizards. We get them in Queensland up north but crocs not ali's. Looks like great fun there mate.

We actually put 4 screws in number plates to stop the water ripping them off. A mate thought he would put one in each top corner and one in the centre on the bottom of the plate as his plate was mounted on a flat surface on his bull bar. Deep water still bent up the corners.
