Cool! How was Fordyce?

the trails kept getting better each day....barrett was really cool. we only made to the second creek crossing was to deep and zip got scarred...lol

Next time we go I would like to go try these trails.

Having driven the Jeep down and never done the Rubicon before I just wanted to stay with the core group this time.

I look forward to seeing some pics of your guys' excursions.

And if both of you would have made it then I wold have given it a shot

Too bad I was in the rear, we made the crossing when I was leading

Zip must've needed me to tell him that he should do it because "it's been done before!"

I STILL haven't gotten over being DENIED in the Little Sluice, the burden & pressure of having you in my jeep just overwhelmed me...but it was fun trying

As for the river crossing, yeah your right... it wasn't at all about these pics...










Our test dummy we figured it to be about 40" deep, with a flow of 300+, thought we lost Mark in the last pic, but he made it safely

"Burden & pressure"? No way! You gave it a good try! It was fun to tag along and there's always next time.....that is if you'll let me come along again.....don't want to give you any pressure now!

That looks like a pretty crazy river crossing, by the way! Glad that Mark made it back!

Yeah, he had already made the crossing initially & ran up the trail to check out the next river crossing. So when he got back to come across he was tired & stumbled as he came back.

We ran into a local on our way out, he mentioned that, that crossing was usually that way, and that if one decided to cross they just needed to be committed to it once started...maybe next time
