All I have to say is wow what a day. Started off real fun until we got the first big hill. Couple jeeps had to be pulled out and one popped a bead. One lost a motor mount and tranny mount so it was leaning 45 deg and popped a radiator hose. I hooked up to it to pull him out and stripped the teeth of my ring gear, so I lost four wheel drive. Had to leave his jeep on the trail. It was a lot of fun and a huge learning experience.

Wow what a experience...This was my first time on a on freeway and gulch. With only 3500 mi on my jeep this was one hell of a way to break it in. I had a hell of time with only 3 hours sleep I took on more than I was expecting...Every one except larry had some kind of set back. We starting airing down around 9am and by the time we got to the end of Rancheria rd it was close to 9pm! Its safe to say I knocked the new off it.

Push them to a photo site like Photobucket or Picasa. I use photobucket. You make an album on their site, use bulk uploader, select files from hard drive, upload them, then select the pics you want on their site, select "generate codes" and it copies the HTML code, then just paste it in to your post. You mentioned you had a good video?
Can you mail it to me?
Thanks,
