Sorry we missed the trip, We got suckered into driving Fordyce Creek from Eagel lakes to Cisco Grove , Made it with a few battel scars but I think Deer valley would have been a better tari to cut my teeth on.

I had a great time on the trails and the breakfast burritos were worth the trip alone, thanks Mark.

I will get some pics up a little later.

Dude, pull the string!

No kidding!

But it really was some good pucker, there was a big hole on the passenger side, and the video never shows how . .

OK, I know, I know

No problem It was great to meet you and your dad. Hope to see you guys again soon.

Yeah GREAT trip!

I enjoyed meeting everyone and the wheeling was good. Those that did not do Slick Rock missed out! It is such a scenic trail with a couple nice obstacles. We took some good pics of it and some videos. I should have a few up in a day or two. (Sorry for the delay - back to work and it sucks!)

 

[XJensen]

And now for some pics. here is what I have so far....

This was my first time on this trail and it was a great trail with an even better group. Thanks again to Mark for setting everything up and it was great to meet everyone there.

We started the trip with a little hang up. It was pretty amazing what Harlee did on 30" tires.

The trail was packed with some amazing landscapes and views

I have more video Saulo shot of the other sides of that rock, that small section made my day.

 

[Harlee&Tahoe]

I remember the rock Letterman was playing I spotted as we went by.

It was pretty amazing what Harlee did on 30" tires.

Funny I get stuck after tip-toeing through this the evening before loaded with 2 nights worth of wood.
Probably would have been more amazing with out such a nervous passenger.:wow: uke:
I'm definately going to have to run Slickrock next trip!
I recived my CB stuff today (only a week late) I'll be able to communicate now.
Can't wait for next year!arty:
