Much rather be there than the numerous conference calls I'm facing today. Looks awesome.

Awesome!

You guys have a great weekend!

so far for me: snapped winch line (likely due to poor maintenance procedures); driver's rear quarter panel dent & scratch; passenger's rear quarter panel dents. let's see how today goes. original squeak is gone, but a new one had developed...not nearly as annoying.

I almost feel kinda bad. I think we thrashed your winch line pretty good in the trees at the top of Little School Buss.

What did AJ find to fix his?
-
Man what great time we had got everything cleaned up and put away. My damage consisted of one of my electric fans shorted out and after going up killing time my power steering pump got cooked but thanks to tony me and my brother road the rest of Saturday with them. My brother said to tell everyone thanks for letting him tag along he said he had a blast
-

A rubber brake line.

Had a blast. It was a great weekend.

Great, great trip! I have a ton of photos that I'll upload to photobucket and post the link tonight or tomorrow. Also have a little GoPro footage that I'll play with and post up.
As always, Black Mountain never lets us down, killer wheeling
-
Great trip to Harlan, again! Got home and got the jeep washed... Maybe not to Bobby's standard though.
I had the A/B pillar dings after getting impatient and frustrated on Middle Rock Garden. And I did scrape paint on the Mason Jar tree on our first run up. It's just hard to get the tires as high as you need!
My Dad had a blast again and asked me to say thanks to all the guys.

What an awesome trip! We were able to get a ton of wheeling in. This park is tough to beat. I'll have some go pro vids to post up, but need to edit them. I also donated a small amount of paint to the Mason Jar tree on our first run through it.
My cousin, Chase, had a great time too! All around great trip.
-
Was great seeing/spotting all the guys this weekend. Thanks again to Clark for the passenger seat. I will be bringing my Jeep next year for sure. Look forward to wheeling with everybody on the next one.

Lots of stories and paint left on the trails. Had a blast as always! Great people, AWESOME weather and small group made this worth missing all the others. Carnage for me consists of either brake fluid in rear drum leaking or axle seal and broke 2 lug nut studs at somepoint. Checked all the lug nuts before we started home abd was a bit shocked. So rode home with 3 and periodically stopped to check the good ones. Beat the rain as well on the way home. Pics and vids as the week goes by...

Sorry for the ugly watermark...i'm not very happy about my photo from last year being plastered on the front of Harlan's brochure without any credit/mention but live and learn. If any members would like a photo without the watermark, let me know and ill take it off.
AWESOME trip!!! I bent my exhaust down and have a little smudge of Todd's paint on my fender. Sorry about that and ill find a way to get you whole...might need a few cases of strawba-ritas to heal that. I forgot my camera on the second day so sorry if i don't have everyone i rode with. Mason jar was epic this year along with that diner burger. Thanks everyone for making this a great ride!

I was clear of the tree when I went over it, I turned into it to say I got some body damage from Harlan. Lol

Jeep is sitting in the garage covered in KY mud and still full of gear. Will get to it after I cut the grass tonight. Need to pull the rear tire to see what's leaking. I bet brake fluid as the emergency brake would not hold it at all. Front studs will be fixed this week. Gonna clean her all up and repaint some things. I want a mall krawler... //;D//

Hey! Our 4 doors do fine. If I recall everybody winched at the ledges and Jay did get the farthest in a 4 door
-
We waited many times while running trails for you 4 door guys ;) bringing up the rear and you all did great! Jay has come along way with the jeep and abilities. Wish my TJ rode like that jeep. I was told I was hauling ass on the way to and from the jar ha ha. Plush!

Yes you were rolling pretty good. It's all good. It was an awesome long weekend
-
Hey Wes after washing the mud off I see why you where wanting to buy my dinner //;D// but its all good man its not the first scratches and for sure not the last thats gonna get on it before the repaint. Ben you think they where just over torqued and send me a text or message when I can stop by and grab that mat
-
QUESTION.... these pics look amazing and hearing the carnage makes me wonder... would a non locked TJ on wide 33's have survived this park?
-
Yes you could do this park you just would have to take by passes and play on some of the more mild trails. Most parks we break up into groups with similar rigs and hit the trail suitable for that group.
-
QUESTION.... these pics look amazing and hearing the carnage makes me wonder... would a non locked TJ on wide 33's have survived this park?
I say no. Only based on the fact that we would have to drag you over most of the obstacles. You would be VERY limited in trail selection. Based on this last ride I would discourage anyone coming to this park without lockers. I know on this trip I had to hit things with some serious speed and more throttle than I like. But that is my 2 cents. It is a very long haul and for what you could actually do, it would be a disappointing trip.
Todd, not sure. I blame it on that stupid little washer spacer and the wheel already had a slight wobble from not sitting flush since the studs were longer at the press side. I have a new rotor already and will be disassembling it all to have my mech press new studs in. I have the mat so let me know how you want to get it or I can swing it by.
As of now she is unhappy with me. I was extremely lazy when I got home after that haul home.

Haha, you love that minivan motor!

Yes sir, those ledges did claim roughly 1/4th of my tire tread, but worth it. Crazy adrenaline!

Thank you sir! I'm definitely learning more every ride. After the recent changes, I am having to relearn my jeeps capabilities.

Took today off to get her cleaned up and catch up on other chores. Here she is sitting in her home. (http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/08/18/f1d5cd3508c2104fac87b3939b4a3326.jpg)

Should be some shots in there that could be used for pic of the month!
none of my GoPro footage was worth a darn, I had the camera in a location on the jeep that just did not give a very good view. I do have a few minutes of Jay beating down Killing Time that I will work up into a video .

Jared and Wes hit Grape Vine. Wes's Grape Vine wheeling was the crawl of the weekend in my book. That trail has become REAL gnarly
-
There was some rock at the bottom the size of a refrigerator I hit with my belly skid and moved a good foot. I came up the left line from the bottom, took me a while but I crawled up it. Damnit now I want to go back even more.

Awsome pics fellas. After missing last year and this year, Im sure as H311 NOT missing next year. Looks like you all had a blast. Hopefully I will be able to make at least one ride this year //:'(//

Next year we are going to try to fit zip-lining into the trip. Up to 60 mph on certain stretches.

These pictures are awesome! I have to be careful not to short out the keyboard with my drool. //letseat//

I'm burning the dirt! haha
I haven't been on here since I got back... Sorry but without Colleen with me, I have no pics. :( This trip was by far AWESOME!! Yea, I had a brake hose blow out at a VERY unfortunate time... Sittin vertical on Killin' Time. That took me off the trails for about 4 hours to try and dig one up in Harlan. Thanks to the local Chris Allen for helping out with that!
Harlan was also blessed to keep some of the paint from my rig. Mason Jar exit will now be known as AJ's Knob! At least now my drivers side rocker matches the passengers side!
Putting on new flares prior to going was for sure one of my stupidest ideas... I see a flare trimming project in my very near future. The only other minor thing was my r/r valve stem was eaten by something, the cool part, it never leaked... I just couldn't air it back up.
Things I learned... when Todd is behind you and says back up and gas it... your going to drive your bumper square into a bolder!
The fellowship on this trip, in my opinion, was fantastic! I look forward to next year!

Dang Clark same as me rear armor in list.liking the pics tho.see everyone in sept.was MIA and returning sept.lol I'll get my pics to u Clark tomorrow came out good on the hood.but replacing thermostat and flashing the radiator.

It's funny how the non-WJM have attempted to put down and mock the WJM, especially with this "whitey-tighty battle flag" amongst other comments/actions. It's been said that success and greatness are always meant with opposition. It just goes to show how much of a bully people can be when not apart of something more than themselves. ; )
