Eric, I'm probably in the same boat as you, but I might make it out around noon or so.... Updated list coming up....
 
So we've got registered through the website:
Brian
Joe
Mylene
Merle
Eric
Quinton
Sean
Darin
Al
Mike
David
John
Clint


Going via verbal on Mud:

Sean
Andy
Christian

Current Plans are: Everyone meets at the Outpost at 9am. If you need breakfast, gas, toilets, or passes get there earlier. We'll split up into 2 group of 6-7 trucks. Current trails would be starting off FR 553, the easier group doing Falls Dam-Wolf's Den, Moderate group doing Dickey Bell-Rocky Mt. Loop-Slab Pile. These won't be the complete trails, but you can see on the map we'll cover about the same amount of trail and break for lunch at Wolf Den trail head.

After lunch we usually lose people, and some want to see Daniel (maybe then to Kodak). So we'll hit Daniel after lunch. This is really up to those that may be leaving mid Saturday, and if those just coming out for the day, are just doing Daniel just let me know... We'll confirm on Saturday. Trail leaders are Eric, Clint, Brian (just in case we split into 3 groups)

PM before 2 or so for questions/advice/concerns
 
since they modernized the bath house and made them bigger and with showers, i updated a picture Clint posted a few years ago.

Got back from New Jersey later than expected and have not had time to put front axle back together. I will not be making this one guys. Hope everyone has a great safe time, and I want to see some pics even if they make me sick!

That map of Uhwarre is awesome, fourtrax. I've got to get up there later this summer!!
 
The 1993 75 series Troopy made its debut. THANK you Clint, Brian, Joe, and Merle for sharing advice on driving. Here are a few shots from the Saturday Easy ride and the trip up Daniel:

I had a great time even though I showed up very late. Good seeing everyone again and meeting some new people.

It was a break I needed and also needed to kick my ass into getting all the projects on my truck done for the september event.



Eric remind me I owe you a bottle of PS fluid next time we meet up as well as a bottle of what ever you drink for the help on pulling the engine. :D
 
Quinton any chance you can send me any of the full size ones you got of that truck so I can forward them to Logan's family.


The Monk's had a blast and I give props to Lydia for not freaking out due to my aggressive driving style in her son's rig especially since she had never been off road before and we hit up Daniel at the very begining. :grinpimp:
 
As always it was nice seeing everyone and meeting a few people as well. Hannah and I had a good time.

Al, we are good. someone gave me a few bottles of power steering fluid so i was just passing it on to someone who needed some. as for the engine... that was just fun work, I should have had to pay you :)
 
I had a great time as did Allie, my 4-year-old.

Kudos to Stacy for bringing enough toys to not only stock a small toy store but to entertain the horde of children after lunch. The water balloons were an added bonus.

Heather, Allie told my wife about her new friend Lily and the goodie bag as soon as we got home. Thanks for brining those along to share. It was great to meet Ella Rose. She's beautiful.

Big thanks to Merle (and Quinton) for hiking back a steep section on the backside of Daniel to spot for me when I was stuck. With the added dents from this trip, it looks like I can finally justify the new exhaust that is run properly.

Below are a few pics. I only got a dozen or so that were worth a darn. HERE is a link to the album.

Thanks again to Brian and the others who helped orgainize the trip!
