Well that's a start.  Looks like you just turned on to 21 off 22.  Have fun and post more when you can.

Glad it wasn't serious Clark.

My fuel pump died and fortunately the local Advance had one, replaced it and wheeled the rest of the day.  Did an awesome trail called little school bus. I couldn't believe I made it up without winching.
Big thanks to Todd, Clark and Rob for helping me with the repair on the fuel pump today.

He's got both. He had put the radials on it for some road driving and didn't swap them out.

They haven't let me down all weekend. Getting over everything I try.  They are still a little stiff but they'll get broken in.

No photo, but as I was hooking to leave Windrock this morning an older guy pulled up with an old John Deere Gator on a trailer.  No cab or cage on it.  Said he wheels it a few times a year.  That's a first for me.

The video Marie posted of me was from Trail 15. Clark, Rob and I did little school bus on Fri. Crazy big rocks. Clark has some video he will post. Quote from Clark "the closest he has ever come to going over". I was very intimated by the trail but I made it through without pulling cable.  There were quite a few spots that were way, way off camber and I had max pucker going on, but thanks to Rob for great spotting I kept all 4 tires on the ground.

Ah OK, thought the video was 38 and thought it looked a little different.  Those are both great trails.  38 Little School Bus is the longest run of rocks I have ever seen.

As far as the closest for Clark, thought I had already seen that ..... twice.  So DANG!

I had to winch out of 38 :( 

It has changed a bunch since the last time we were there.

Jim and Shilo ran 38 downhill.

As Shilo and I were running 38 my brakes went out. Broke the brake hose on the driver side front (from the frame to the caliper).

Shilo ended up breaking a u joint at the knuckle on his passenger side.

Had a fun trip. Did not get any sleep due to crappy neighbors and a freak tornado, hail storm that wiped shilo and I out of tent camping. Luckily Torg had 2 empty bunks. Yes, he and George are serious snorers  //:o// but I was grateful for a bed! Nothing broke and had a blast on the trails. Only thing was saturdays mud was nasty in some spots. Not sure how I will tackle the inside removal without driving into a pond  //;D// I really don't know if I will come back to this park based solely on the fact that you have to drive FOREVER on access trails to get to an obstacle and the maps... that is another subject altogether. But the only way I think I would go back is if I could go for a 4 day or so trip and just plan on making the haul out to the far right side of the park. We might have covered 25% of the park in 2 days. Trail 39 was the shiznit and 15 was awesome even though very short. Here are two vids of me that Marie sent me. I did not take any pics other than of my own jeep. We rolled really well in the group we had on saturday. Small and covered good ground once we split from Johns breakdown.
