Great to hear! Y'all be safe getting home...
 
bet there are some great stories
 
I don't think there is anyway in there or out without crossing the creeks a few times and the main channel two or three times too. I imagine they had to wait until the water level went down a little bit...or people got their "bad@$$" on and went scuba diving. When the water comes over the hood by much I'm nervous about hydra-lock. I'm sure everyone is ok...hopefully no-one had to go swimming.

The guys with the big tires and high lift generally are ok...if you are sitting on something smaller than 33 tires and small lift....it can be a real challenge. Maybe real challenge is a too strong a word...but the water can get high up there quick and it would make good sense to wait it out if you had to.

Those are some great pictures and a crazy Video so far. Looks like everyone will be draining and refilling their diffs soon as it appears they likely spent more time under the water than over dry ground the last few days.

Whose XJ is that on it's side?
 
Andy and Roger, thanks again for everything. That was a great weekend, although Sunday turned out to be a lot longer than we all expected. It made for an epic ride though. Roger, hope your transmission is salvageable.
 
Excellent pictures
 
I'm still drying out, but made it home just fine last night. Thanks for everyone's help last night.
 
Great weekend, great seeing everyone. Left front caliper locked up at some point on the way home and it's going to be awhile before the truck drys out but all good times. I'll get some pics and videos up soon.

Thanks to eveyone who came out. This was without a doubt the largest group we've had on a NYR and i dare say it will be the most memorable. Dont forget to check/change all your fluids soon, water that deep has a way of getting into places it doesnt belong.
 
Getting pics and videos loaded now but may take a little while.

thought this was kinda funny though, about the time we hit pavement I get an alert on my phone:
