Had to wait a while for mark and grett to drop their tow rigs off at tahoe with bill driving them back.

not much to do, but drink, read and get a tan

we figured Brett in the jeep would be the first to break, and he did

the first and last i saw of bill, since he wsa in the front and I was last. here he is on gatekeeper.

brett on gatekeeper

Don on V rock (I tihkn thats what its called)

mark blew is upper link mount on the rear 4 link not long into the trip and had to turn around and go out with Jimmy's help

series of Cass running through V rock. She is pretty fearless for her third trip ever.

I need to finish my sliders

after camping at spider, we headed down million dollar hill, with cass driving again.

we took the old sluice down to buck. i had meant to take the turnout before the hardest section, as Dave blew up there last year, but followed bill down too far

the new suspension and wheel base stretch is working well.

Pointing at one of several new dents. the rocks were wet and slippery. i actually laid the bronco on its side into a rock (which prevented me from flopping over). A quick blip of reverse got me out of it without too much damage.

some pics around Buck Island Lake, where we stopped for lunch

nice waterfall as we headed up away from Buck

Brett coming down Big Sluice, where a sammi rolled and nearly(maybe did) kill the passenger since he wasnt wearing a seatbelt

Don coming down the same section

another series of cass, coming down big sluice

starting the old sluice, should be first picture

cass doing another wheelie, and giving the "Oops" sign

someone broke down a older balzer, which made getting around tight. you just cant see it here.

We camped at the Springs, which gave me time to see the new dents

another scenery shot

Bill on Cadillac hill

Brett on Caddy

cool waterfall on the way up caddy

having lunch on Top of Cadillac Hill.

Dave leading us out through some deep water, to get to the staging area

one last view shot. This really is a great trail with great views.
