I'm going to try to make it tomorrow with the Cherokee. Do you know how long it takes to get there from the 215/15 interchange. I am kind of new to the area.

From the northern 215/15 interchange, maybe 30min. From the southern 215/15 interchange, figure at least 45min. or more depending on traffic.

I posted earlier that I'd be there, but now with the Jeep doing funny things I don't want to take the chance of getting it stuck someplace uncomfortable. I'll still be out there but will be looking for an empty seat if anyone has one available. :oops: :)

I'd also have to go back by the Sinclair on the extraction to pick up my ride again later on...

Here's a few pictures from the run today. I took some more. If you would like to get a link to the other photos I took just send me a message. It was pretty fun, just a little too much for my stock Cherokee today. Greg

:D What a great run !! Thanks Bob... This club and its guests are the best !! We are so adaptable to "obsticles" on the run,, like a motorcycle race on our intended route !! I liked the 'new' trail a lot,, it offered a lot of great scenery and some cool obsticles.. I'm sorry that "Duntov" and crew couldn't finish it, but I think he made the right descision... CJ & I had a blast and loved every second of it (except some of the long waits for ?? ) Overall a great day in the dirt !!!

Here are my pix and vids...

Enjoy Phil

Fun pix & vid Phil. I like your narrations. I should have mine up either tomorrow or Mon.
Bob, that was a fun trail. It's always nice to find a new, fun trail to run.
It was fun meeting all the peeps again or for the first time. Greg, we'll get you back out in the dirt again for a run that won't take out your underside. Plenty of them out here. You made the right choice backin out.

What a great time! Thank you Bob for offering another great trail for me to add to my own collection. I'm sure if plan A had worked out, it would have been just as much fun. I'm only sorry that I didn't get to drive my rig on this run. We'll have to do it again later.

Tom, thank you very much for allowing me to ride with you...I should have taken you up on your offer to stick around. I refueled and pulled up next to the shop to run inside, and the slight incline in the parking lot was enough to give me trouble starting the engine again. Thought I might have to leave the Jeep out there, but managed to nurse it home. Today I hope to have that fixed!!!

I'll have my photos posted later today. Thanks to everyone for being so patient on the trail! And "Howdy" again to all those new Jeepin' friends I met on this run.
