Jeremy-
  Wish you could have stayed the night. I will get my pics/vids up shortly. Good seeing all of you again. They sure worked the sh** out of me pulling winch cables.

Fixed it for you Glen

Had a good time. Boy was it slick. Schoolbus and beyond has definitely gotten harder. I didn't get many pictures because I was using an old camera with limited memory.

Here's the few I got.

Mark didn't need no stinking winch. Unfortunately this would also be the last time he had rear wheel drive.


Terry making it happen.


Carnage.  >:(

Nasty one, Travis.
Funny thing; when he and Stephanie came camping with us, I got a flat too.  It's alot harder to fix a sidewall though....
Here's how to do it --- if you ever really have to: http://www.adventuretrailers.com/tireclinic.html#major

We just went to Natootley Creek because of trailer-dragging fuel economy issues.  Got a nice spot and I found a new ugly road to explore.
Safety fast,
Bill

Oh man I can't wait to get home and see the rest of the pics!  Can't see them here at work.

I had an awesome time!

Thanks again to Doug and Jerm for all the help.  And I think it was Ben that tied up my swaybar connections on the trail.  Thanks again.

I went from clueless to picking my own lines on the trail this past weekend.  All thanks to the GA Trailriders.  You guys are really a helpful bunch.  Great meeting all of you.

It was a reality check seeing the heavily modified rigs up there.  But the LJ held up even better than I imagined.  Can't wait for my lift and tires in the spring now.  Once the baby is born and I'm not needed 100% of the time I'll be back out with you guys.

I'll be posting my pics and my CB install writeup soon.

Thanks again,
Seth

Seth, glad you had a great time. You and TJ both starting taking some really good lines. I got a few small dents in the skids and a couple of nice rashes on the rails so I probably could have used a bit better line picking in some spots as well. Like I said, sometimes I tried to take the harder line to challenge the Jeep and sometimes I just couldnt pick the right line to be on. Only locked it once though to get myself of the hi-center stuck.

Glad you had fun Seth. I always love getting new people hooked. Just ask Glen. I think we created a monster with him.

Alright boys, I am finished uploading pics and workin on videos as we speak. I was wiped out yesterday after leaving tellico I went straight to my moms to see some family and never got to rest. I was asleep by 9:15 last night. So here are the pics I got...http://s238.photobucket.com/albums/ff272/krawler00/Tellico%20GATR%20Nov%2008/

Now the trip was awesome and we all worked or junk super hard up the bus. That trail has gotten seriously rutted out! It was a blast and had fun wioth Glen running cables, straps and all! We work well as a team and it made that first beer back at camp that much better!! {toast} I will post up the video links as I get them. Carnage for me was another small crack in the hartop at the vents in the back. Damn schoolbus tree AGAIN!!! I almost busted out the back passenger window on another section as well. Had to pull the cable to avoid it. Oh, and as for the spot everyone had to winch up... I made it along with Doug. ;D {nln}

Nice pictures Ben. Yeah you were not kidding about the ledge on trail 8... What I nailed my control arms on a year ago with 35's and a short wheelbase I rolled right over this time with no lockers, no extra gas needed, nothing... its just gone  :'(

Ben looks like the gate keeper or something, "Your doom awaits."    :D
