We will be bringing Galen - he's offoaded to the Coves before, but not a good romp through a rock garden. And of course the dogs to clean up any lunchtime picnic droppings.

But no camping - darn.

Bring him (or her). There are few enough opportunities like this, don't miss out. I can behave myself, although I might inadvertently teach him/her a few new words. :eek:

Do you guys know where you are camping? I cant make the run but I might blow up there later for the cool weather and telling lies around the fire.

Never been there before so no clue. I figured we could just set up in some cool spot along the trail. Catch up in the afternoon and start squawking on CB4
 
Well it's 5am I still haven't gone to sleep, I don't think I'll be making this trip...Next time

Fun run - Thanks all.

As soon as I hit the dirt road, I figured out why I kept having trouble getting my wheels straight for the spotters. First I got a VSC error message on the instrument panel. Then I noticed it wasn't too bad cuz my hand was blocking it. Finally I realized that when going straight, my steering wheel was aligned to about 11 o'clock - or roughly 30 degrees off. Guess I need an alignment. I will assume it was the first obstacle!
 
Fun run everyone!! It was great to get out, and into the cooler air, and do some fun wheeling. Now lets see some pics, I forgot my camara so I have none.
 
Pyett camping

Well Spike, bluecruiser, FJ40LVR and I all set up camp just a way up the road from the last waterfall. Everything was going well until just about dark. The sky opened up and came down hard and wasn't quitting. After a while Josh(FJ40LVR) started packing up. He heard on his sat radio that we were in for 6" of rain throughout the night. He wanted to get him and his son outta there and I decided to go with him. Stuffed all my muddy s*** into the rig and we headed out at 9pm. Spike and Chris decided to stick it out. The creek crossings were getting high, but still passable at that point.
Passed thru mutliple HARD storms all the way to PHX. Got to PHX and it was dry. Hit the 60 east because I wanted to go home thru Florence, less traffic and if it was gonna continue to rain like it had been, I didn't wanna be on I-10. I got pounded by rain on the 60 and part way towards Florence, then it cleared up. Got home at 1:30am. Thankfully my daughter didn't get me up until 7:30.
That was an adventure!

If anybody has spike's or bluecruiser's (Ben and Chris) phone number, please call them today and find out if they got out OK. Unless they too left last night, they are probably still there right now.

I'll post up some pics later today.

May have been the first obstacle, but when you hit that one step real hard, the one you eventually went around, you passenger wheel flexed back pretty good. Inspect all your IFS components for any damage also.
It was good meeting you. :cheers:
 
Favorite Pic

I took a few pics though only a few are worth sharing - and you'll have to wait for them. But so far this is my favorite...

Wow what a great trip. Just enough rigs to keep it interesting without bogging things down. We're still talking about how well Shauna (sp?) drove that 62... nice. Great trail, excellent weather... when are we going again?

I'll have pics up shortly.
