Finally have a chance to sit down. I told you guys without kids I would not get a break! :D Man, what a trip! Weather was absolutely awesome and so was the company. We had it all, carnage, hangovers and mayonase ;) I will upload all my pics to the photobucket site in the am. Here are a few to get started...

By the way, I just got back into LaGrange. It's 11:30. I sat, with the Jeep off, on I-85, for over 2 hours. Really bad wreck. Everyone got out of their cars and we were just hanging out. I told this one trucker about our trip. He really liked the Jeep. Cool story, huh?

We saw a bunch of jeeps at the cabin when we went by Sunday morning. We went up schoolbus...it was a struggle...not really muddy from the rain but so washed out the bottom was a "V"  shape. Helicopter was different too.  Guard rail was much the same and I didnt have any better luck getting up it. It'll be interesting to see if the trails get closed first from overuse/erosion or people get bored with that being the only really challenging section of tellico left open and they stop coming.

We wound up with lots of carage.
3 xj tail lights
1 xj header panel
1 exhaust bent (mine)
1 tire off bead (mine)
1 tire side wall punctured
1 front ujoint broken
1 front axle shaft broken
1 battery failure
1 pretty new superwinch breaking in half (mine)
2 xj quarter panels
1 xj drag link bent (mine)
1 xj A pilar damage w/ windshield broken
1 xj rocker panel damaged so bad the door sill plate popped up
1 toyota truck w/ fender, door, cab damage from sliding on its side down the V shaped rock between schoolbus and helicopter.

the punctured side wall was on the bedless yota...we fixed it with rope from an old coaches whistle, black rtv, and a flat head screw driver...made our own tire plugs and shoved 2 of them in the hole...aired it back up to 20 psi and it wasnt leaking by the time we got back to the pay station.
I hope I get to trail ride this year.
