Just got home.... Had a great time, The weather was nice,  the trails had their challenges at times......I'm patting myseft on the back....didn't have to get winched up not one time ( and Thomas managed to get thru the weekend without high-centering on any of the rocks)...lots of fun... Will post pics when we get everything unloaded .  Everyone left intact.    Superlift ORV is one of the best places to wheel..that we have been to so far.
I just want to give a shout out to 4 Wheel Parts! for contributing to this club event. Thanks!  You guys rock! 

and a Thank You goes to Ron Carter Hummer for their contributions also. 




See everyone again at the April meeting!  More info on that will be coming out as soon as it becomes available

Don't Forget Club Elections are coming up!!!

Arin


I'm ready to go again!!

Hey Doc! We had a great time! Wish you had come. I towed a trailer that had your name on it  But it was never used... No problems, we had a Winch issue the first hill, but it was resolved with some quick rewiring.

We did some agressive stuff as the video will show. I plan to have a teaser vid coming by the end of the week!

Had a blast!!!  Nothing broke, not even tie rods!!  I tell you what I love wheelin in the H2 but after seeing what Chad did in his H3 sure makes me miss mine.  I mean he has no rear locker, all he has is 35" BFG mud terrain and he never had to be winched up anything!!!!  To me that states clearly how good the H3 is offroad..  Of course you have to be an awesome driver like Chad but it is still a great truck right off the showroom floor. 

And Arin you did do great too!!! Heck everyone did great!!!  Anyway thanks to Ron Carter and 4wheel parts for the contibutions you made it made it better for everyone I think!!!

I also want to thank Auggie and Holly for everything that they did for this trip.  Auggie did a great job once again of spotting everyone up the difficult terrain.  We made great time and got to alot of the park that we have not seen before.  And for Holly finding that great Hotel for the group.  Deffinately beats last years that is for sure!!!  Even though I did not stay there everone said it was great.  Can't wait till the next one!!

dan and i shared driving time and had a blast.  it was a great group and everyone was able to get their share of driving in with the exception of auggie.  how that man can walk those trails all day long is beside me.  we had great trails, great cook out  lunches on the trails and great evening dinners.  we were just to exhausted to get into much trouble. 

we want to thank 4 WHEEL PARTS AND RON CARTER HUMMER for their contributions.  everyone came back with new additions to their trucks that will come in handy.  a lot of forthought and planning went into making this a great outing.  gracias to you all.

see you next month

That was the best run yet.  Cannot wait for the next one.  Tim, I did get winched up one hill, but I muscled up the rest.  You are only as good as the tools you have, I would like to thank Auggie for his excellent spotting, with no rear locker, every time he told everyone to set them all I could think was "oh sh*@!"  But, thanks to him I made it up all but one hill. 

I would also like to thank 4 Wheel Parts and Ron Carter for the door prizes.  Looking forward to using them on the next run.

And Justin the body armor will be a great addition also.  Thanks again.

See ya'll in April if not before.

You did great Chad...sure proved me wrong many times.... every time it seemed like all the trucks in front of you were having trouble getting up the hill I would tell Thomas " Chad is not gonna make it up this one..there's no way...everyone is having too much trouble...he's not gonna make it"  BUT  you did!!!  then I would be telling him "OMG!! he's gonna make it!.... He made up..WOW!" 
You really did an awesome job at "man-handling" those trails

I also have to give kuddos to the "kids"....  Jesi and Andrew....( Jesi is probably gonna correct me after she finds out I called her a kid)  They shared the driving in the H3 Alpha  and they both did a great job on the trails.
