Took a trip to Gulches this weekend with several friends, including Tripp and his new buggy. Lots of pics were taken but none by me. //:

The good news for me was no carnage on the buggy other than a mud coating. Saturday we did rock garden, shipwreck, heartbreaker, palmetto crossing, and a few other smaller trails whose names I neglected to get. The trails were quite muddy/sloppy, but the weather was perfect.
I managed to do shipwreck fairly easily the first time with a bit of "bump", and then Tim Kirk drove it on the same line. Another in our group with a Chevy V8 Truggy also cruised through. Sadly Tripp got turned sideways and had to resort to the winch. On Sunday I gave it another go, got through the rocks OK, but slid sideways on the ramp so had to winch up. It was even messier today due to a heavy mist in the morning.
Tripp did give a try on 3D, but had some fuel delivery problems (possible vapor lock), and potentially a steering issue with insufficient reservoir size. I'm sure he'll post up later.
It started to sprinkle Sunday morning, so we packed up by 11:00 and headed home.
The GATR banner is still hanging at the entrance.
