what a great day
, we only got lost in the very beginning
(overshot the exit from Beeline by about 10 miles or so)
maybe it is best summed up in the following words (spoken like this or similar
):
"we're gonna do something close to home so we can be out early"
"Log Corral is just about 500 feet of rock garden and then it's all sandy wash"
"Powerline, of course, is regularly serviced - it is pretty much a graded dirt road with some off-camber wash-outs"

really, I haven't been on a trail in a long time that I needed to run so much time in first gear
I also lost a mirror
but retained the holding nut 
and I got some noteworthy stuffing myself into holes on ruts and a memorable wheelstand in
what FREAKED me out though, is, that once we were finally parked on the side of the paved road at 7:45pm, my truck (engine shut off, in first gear and handbrake pulled) started rolling towards me

while I called Ben and Kevin for help and they went
, I was luckily able to stem myself into the quarter panel and stop it
PHEEEWWW
again, great fun, great company, and great scenery
