Great pics!  Crowded?

Thursday afternoon, Friday and Saturday until 4 were killer. Not crowded at all. There were many more rigs here than when we use to come in the summer but it was not an issue at all.

Saturday after the competition, about 4pm, there were rigs everywhere. So if you wanted to wheel late Saturday there may have been issues w waiting but we called it a trip about that time. We had all the rocks we could handle by then.  Great trip

Had a great weekend guys. Sorry I bailed early today but didn't sleep very good any of the nights and my back was not feeling like bouncing around anymore.
Weather was great. This time of the year is perfect for Harlan. No issue with crowds at all and loved seeing some of the killer rigs.

That dodge diesel at lunch by White Tail Crawl was killer.

Weather was perfect (except for the dust).  Rocks were dry and there was grip for days. Food was outstanding and hanging by the campfire was great. I left Sat evening and got home at midnight because I hadn't been sleeping great in the cabin either.

It was my first time staying at Mike's cabins and if I'm being honest, they are crap. Water pressure and bathrooms were marginal and the parking with trailers is a PIA and they are not cheap. I stayed on the Putney side last year and everything about it is much better. I would encourage us to think about setting the date for next year in Sep and let's look at the cabin availability at Putney and we can book the cabins. 

I had no cell signal other than when Wes and I hit Huddle House Fri morning. Here are some pics I got.

I agree John. I will send the Putney side an email and see what is open. I looked Friday night at their availability and it was looking full. I will see what they say using our head count in this trip.

Great time and love the Oct time slot....loved having daughter with me. Her husband and our friend Zach all had a great time. Thanks for those giving them a seat to ride in.

I'm fed up with the cabins also. The price increase plus the additional charge for credit card is bullshit

I was having a fine time until both my rear driveshaft and winch came apart at the same time at the top of Middle Rock Garden.  After some recovery help from the crew I was able to drive down in FWD to a point where I could load on the trailer.

Rode with John on Saturday and that was enjoyable too.  Thanks buddy!

The small house I rented in Harlan was OK, and if I had someone to share it would have been a good deal financially.  FHarlan it's not a big deal for me to drive to Putney vs. Evarts;  the downside of Putney is a long ride to get to any obstacle trails.

Left Harlan at 5am and home at 10:30.

Post by: DOUG on October 16, 2016, 01:12:06 PM
Awesome trip! 
Even though
I towed with the hoe
And I missed the Q

I only enjoyed Thursday and Friday on the trails but I was wiped. 

Enjoyed some
awesome chili thanks @clark123456 and
tasty jambalaya thanks @raisenhead

Thanks for the great spots when I needed them and help navigating.  Hope you guys found some more cool spots. 

Thanks @kent10s and@clark123456 for letting me bunk in. Hope it was more comfortable for you guys after I vacated.

I've stayed at the putney cabins and it is a long ass haul to the good trails, but if we only go in and out once a day, it's not a big deal. The cabins don't bother me when I'm alone, but I get that the ladies would like a nicer place and it would be great to have bigger cabins that sleep more people. 

Please excuse the quick exit. I realized if I didn't roll out soon I wasn't going to make it home before midnight and in time to head to the lake for the 8am fall of the power plant tower/stack that we've looked at for 40 years, and 11 from our beach.

Heck of a trip as usual! Rocks were nice and dry and luckily no issues with crowds.

Very cool being there this time of the year. I'm all for going to Putney side.

I didn't take many pics this year, but got some of Danny in Lions Den.  It was awesome and he made it look easy

Thx, Doug...it wasn't special, and I'm still waiting for Linda to write down her recipe...I'm sure she'll get right on that! 

Tony's butts were awesome, and so was Wes's brisket...I'm glad he brought that smoker on this trip, 'cause it don't get much better than that trip for food after a long day of repairing and winching Justin's junk ( @jeeptrk )  #Iwilldo57forit

I really appreciated John, Justin, Beth, Wes, and Hector ducking around with my tire...I really thought I would only have to air it up a couple of times that day; I'm sorry for wasting so much time. 

Regarding the cabins:  Evarts is very nice for getting gas on the way to the trailhead, and being so close to good trails.  I actually found cabin 1 to be pretty nice, but I'd bring an air mattress next time for the futon...I slept so much better on the real bed after Doug freed it up with his early departure.  Being at Evarts allowed Wes and the cooking team to check on their grub without major wasted time, plus if you need parts or stuff from camp, it's extremely convenient to be on that side.  I did notice the difference between Danny's cabin and my cabin...Kent did well selecting his cabin.

Many thanks to Kent for reserving a cabin and sharing it with me.

Great trip. Only way I know I was their was I'm in the group pic .  And I'm sure I will be cropped out at some point. 

Ran some great trails did ok. Still need more seat time. I did hang with the big guys with a few hick ups.  All in all enjoyed everyone's company.  Great weather and no lines. Not sure where they all where but we had no issues the whole weekend. Wed thru sun.   

Not sure if I will make any more rides this year. Maybe I can sneak one more in.   Thanks to all for putting up with me.

I guess I should also tell you that Jay's jambalaya is fantastic...I don't get Louisiana cooking very often, and it's nice to have it from someone who knows how to do it right.

Now...let the Jay bashing begin!

And cb works from mason jar to the cabins to check on the butts... Doubt would reach the others.

X2 to give the Putney cabins a try next year. 

I wasn't happy w the price increase and the 10% up charge for a credit card. BS

Really great trip, enjoyed every part of it. Killer wheeling, awesome eats and camp fire time.

Big, Big thanks to Wes for bringing the smoker.  It was perfect.

Also big props to Wes for the jerky. Really tasty.

And thank you to Kevin for the awesome firewood. I'm only a fire apprentice since Todd was missing but the wood was great.

Great trip. Only way I know I was their was I'm in the group pic .  And I'm sure I will be cropped out at some point. 

Ran some great trails did ok. Still need more seat time. I did hang with the big guys with a few hick ups.  All in all enjoyed everyone's company.  Great weather and no lines. Not sure where they all where but we had no issues the whole weekend. Wed thru sun.   

Not sure if I will make any more rides this year. Maybe I can sneak one more in.   Thanks to all for putting up with me.

I remember on white tail crawl "before jay learned how to use his lockers" how much trouble he had even with Bobby's expert spotting skills.

Was that before or after you left early?

And for the record, Bobby was spotting me to get stuck.  Really glad everything turned around after Thursday.

I got another driveshaft. Story of my life.

I had a rear upper Rock Krawler joint came apart and messed up the rubber race inside. I was able to take it apart and clean it and kept wheeling but I will need to rebuild with new parts

Also I guess Friday I got into a rock and it hit just above the slider and put a small dent in the body. Time for rocker skins. I did get luck it was real close to the door jamb.

Wonder if that happened on the 2nd set of ledges where you turn hard right into the ledge beside the tree..  I couldn't get up that Thursday so I didn't try it Friday, but something got me in the same spot and I thought it was there there, but mine is a hard paint scratch on the armor in that spot.

Post by: DOUG on October 16, 2016, 10:20:38 PM

One other note - I am changing up my rear straps to cross in the rear.  I stopped to get diesel south of Knoxville and when turning cut it a little too sharp and jumped a rounded curb.  It bounce the trailer a bit and the Jeep rear shifted over quite a bit.  The rear passenger was about 1/6 still on the trailer.  I usually run the rear straps straight from the rear to the axle.  That did not stop the side to side movement enough with the wider axles already pushing out far.  I had to reload the Jeep and unfortunately while unloading it by myself the tire slipped off and smashed my rear tailight so I'll have to fix that.  Anyway, long story short, glad it didn't fall off while moving and I'll be criss-crossing the rear straps to provide more resistance to lateral movement.  I recommend the folks like @jc79 who do the same I do to also cross in the rear.  It doesn't take anymore time or effort to do so.  May also accelerate my plans for the wider drive over fender trailer as well since it has a wider platform that would have helped.

Sorry you had trouble. If the straps were as tight as I pull them, I don't know how your rig shifted. I have never had that happen but sounds like it sucked.

I'm still a believer in straight straps because if you cross and one fails, knowing it shouldn't, but if one fails the rig can shift a lot as the other strap will become very slack and allow a lot of shifting.  Ideally we would have both I guess.

I need straps with safety latches. @tjsahara is that sale still on?

I need an old 7.3 like Kirks. Nice truck.

Gremlins?

Pretty cool seeing some of those rigs out there (Anyone else see the old 5.9l Cummings Ram truggy?) and didn't sit in a single line while there.

s I think a lot of the traffic we hit coming back on 75S(was a cluster fawk at times) was due to the holiday week and might be good to avoid that.



a lot of that traffic was likely folks leaving Knoxville Sunday AM after the UT-Alabama game

Thanks to everyone who was sweet to saydee also. Shes a little shy but as you guys probably found out a little candy or cookies and she's your buddy. The trails were awesome and i hated to leave early saturday but as you guys know happy wife happy life. Ofcourse @Raisinhead said we missed the best trails saturday afternoon.

Another interesting moment from the Harlan trip was when we were working on Justin's rear axle.  There were a couple of locals that wandered over to chat from their camp area.  There was one redneck that felt the need to share his racist views with us in a very colorful way (amazing how there is still such ignorance in this world).  I just ignored him.  At one point, this jackass walked back to his camp to refill his cup or something and what I found very interesting is the other guy who was "with" him explicitly made a point to say that he did not share the same views and that not all people from KY are like that guy.  He seemed like a good dude and wanted to help if he could.  Always interesting...

It appears that on my winch a snap ring on the brake came off after which the entire brake assembly could slide off the shaft.  The brake material inside was pretty worn out as well.  Seems rebuild kits are available on eBay for around $80.  No telling how old the winch is.

Drive shaft was a case of the weld between the tube and the splined portion coming undone.  Welds didn't look like very good penetration in the first place.  So I don't need a new shaft, just rewelded.  Going to a driveline shop today.

More worrying is a puddle of oil on the skid plate under the transmission pan.

It appears that on my winch a snap ring on the brake came off after which the entire brake assembly could slide off the shaft.  The brake material inside was pretty worn out as well.  Seems rebuild kits are available on eBay for around $80.  No telling how old the winch is.


From the last time I saw that winch at Golden, I'm guessing 1950?

The M8274 was introduced in 1974.  In fact there's a date code stamped on the upper housing that I could look at one of these days.

How have we not talked about truck keys?  Or did I miss it?

I thought we discussed making a lost & found forum called something like "John's back pocket"?




Oh yes, mods please create

I think that was a joke.  I'd also expect the date code to be around 74 then :)

What is a tube bandana?  I get flashbacks of Clark sharing the Doug brushing his teeth story when I hear tube bandana.  I think I have ptsd.

Another interesting moment from the Harlan trip was when we were working on Justin's rear axle.  There were a couple of locals that wandered over to chat from their camp area.  There was one redneck that felt the need to share his racist views with us in a very colorful way (amazing how there is still such ignorance in this world).  I just ignored him.  At one point, this jackass walked back to his camp to refill his cup or something and what I found very interesting is the other guy who was "with" him explicitly made a point to say that he did not share the same views and that not all people from KY are like that guy.  He seemed like a good dude and wanted to help if he could.  Always interesting...

that guy was a fucking idiot. he was so drunk he was trying to tell me what to do and was too lazy to even walk around the jeep to see what was going on. He is one of those folks that just likes to hear himself talk, i hated he had to take it to the point he did, the other guy was pretty cool, and welcome help. I do love the overalls with no shirt look tho, very @clark123456 -ish.. Im surprised he didnt get his digits..

Me and my daughter went to the dollar store
or whatever it was beside Subway several times.
Same guy was working each time....in the afternoon
then the next morning. Now he is a younger guy
but was a talker. Kelsey was buying stuff to make
her coffee with and here was the story he told us;

Now try in your best backwoods Kentucky voice...

My pap paw likes his coffee for sure....I remember
when I was just a little thang that one morning my
pap paw went to make his coffee and he ain't got
no filters. Now with pap paw needing his coffee he
sat down took his sock off and used it to make his
coffee. Then he said boy you want some coffee and
I says no sir I don't reckon I do...

I had to do that hiking one time.... I learned after wards that you could just add coffee to boiling water and then sprinkle a little cold water on top of it, before you drink it. To drop the grinds to the bottom. The sock was clean, well, it was cleaned with Dr. Bronners, but clean enough.

While uploading these I found the one of the "boulder" rolling down the hill (for those that were talking about it last weekend). Adam and I almost got killed by a boulder 3 times that size KENT!!

You could hear this rock destroying trees on the way down from on top of the mountain.

In the worst case, you can drive from the Putney side to the Evarts entrance which is a 25 min drive to recover the rig from the other side of the park.
