hey, just wondering where mostly everyone is going to be tomorow. cause i would like to come and watch. i stopped by the campsite earlier but not many people where there.
also, didnt bring the 40 cause the exhaust manifold has started to leak alot. and the steering is still very bad. im super bummed that we coulding bring it. but oh well.
KEN- why didnt you bring YOUR 40? (cough)woose (cough)

awesome picts... ridden much of this on mtn bike over the years.

Tail Gunner from the Wasatch Cruisers - how many guys did you fit into that Cruiser? And what's the deal with the three lights?

Fast-Forward to the Golden Crack. Our trail leader Dave Hartman (WhiteKnuckle) did a phantastic job of moving us about - not easy to do with 16 vehicles. Not much photography after dropping into the wash after Skyline, as everyone concentrated more on moving forward, with spotting thru Zuki Hill and across the all the ledges that make up 'Spike. So Crack it is...

Jim, I think the only pics of Gary's junk we're gonna see on here are from camera phones! That is, until the next mag comes out!
I'd bet money on that! [the mag part]

Pics from today's run on Steel Bender, not many on action pics since everyone was busy, particularly on the big dropoff; weather wasn't cooperating for a while, either. Anyhow, here's Phil in his DD.

with some t'case shenanigans (i.e.temporary two-wheel drive), this climb got the better of me... Mike in the other 40 on this run made it look easy

No pics of the BIG drop (maybe someone else?); I was too busy towing Michael's 6200lbs. Blazer down
actually, I was being lowered down on a strap in the rear. With the canyon cliff directly to the right and the truck coming down the ledge almost perpendicular to the cliff, we were not sure I would be able to make the sharp left with the full weight on the front and manual steering
