here's a samplin' of what is to come this weekend!!!

:party:

there are a few times we will cross water... the pics where Tyler and i are in the deeper stuff with rock walls around us is optional (i backed out of it :) )

...there is one hole mid trail, that if approached wrong, and "flop" ya... YJ pics are proof, and David Moore, has flopped his YJ there as well :dunno:
(but my XJ had no problem :dunno: ) ..."it's a YJ thing"

anyway, on with the pics...
& sorry, i forgot to shoot a couple of the cave! ...it woulda been dark anyways, lol...

This is the optional water "crossing"... more so a place to play around...

so... i was looking ahead, and saw a cool spot to take a poser pic of my jeep; i kinda didn't notice this big hole in front of me! dropped the driver front in, and slammed my control arm/bracket... OOPS! ...was able to back out of it though :)

...that's all folks!

hope everyone is as pumped as i am about this trip! can't wait...
 
there are two other more difficult trails we'll be going to; parson's pass, and 1410, but we didn't ride them, as courtney and i could not have followed Tyler on them being open/open :)
 
It should be noted that both Parson's Pass and 1410 are trails that run right next to the main trail. So... for the people who are not equipped for such trails, you can easily bypass them.
 
parsons pass tore my valve stem off when i took the Rubicon up it last time..
1410 is bit rough, bunny trail is fun if you know where it is..
Dan didnt do the waterfall? lol

Well dang Dan, if I would have known you were gonna cut off the rear quarters, I wouldnt have spent so much time closing em in! Looks good though!
