A great time was had by good friends, and new friends were made.. Clayton has had alot of rain, and they got almost 2" while we were there.. I was hoping that the creeks were gonna be running again, and It did not let me down.. They were running great.. Lot of water, and lot of fun wheelin in Wet and Wild, and Jeffs ledges, and Green Mamba... There were spots that you could loose your vehicle.. Actually saw a Sami pull into one and the water went up to his windshield.. They pulled him out before he went all the way in, and they got it restarted and away we went again... We got to run with a group of about 8 Rigs.. There were alot of Sami's and I mean they things were bad rides.. Some had 14bolt rear ends and 44 fronts.. 38 to 39" tires.. 108" wheel base.. Bad little rigs... And there were about 3 or 4 Yota Buugies... They were tough rides.. :shock: There was alot of carnage, a couple of rolls.. Broken knuckles, drive shafts, and Sunk vehicles, and I tore all the studs off of my rotar.. The wheel space let go, and it tore all the studs but one off.. Luckly it let go once we were off of the mountain..
I took it all apart, and poped the studs out of my rotar, and then poped the studs out of my spacer, and put them in my rotar and put it back together, and we were off again.. First time the thing has broken on me in about 2 yrs.. Not to bad... Anyway, My friends had never been wheelin, and they really enjoyed it, and got to see some kool things.. Oh yeah. I saw maybe 2 guys from the NAXJA club, and I have a couple of pic.. The maroon one blew a bead and I think his locker or compressor was giving him fits.. But anyway, Nice guys and Gals... We also did alittle cooking out .. The weather was really great.. Rain was not to bad except friday night, and part of saturday..
Here are the pic...
Here, I climbed almost straight up a wall and a tree root to see if I could scare my friends... It kinda worked.. Cant see it, but the ground is right at the back end.. Jeep was almost straight up and down.. Slim saw our lights and was trying to figure out what was going on.. When he saw us, he asked if we were ok, and I told him what we were doing, and he just laughed..
Doing alittle cooking on the grill...
This is the guy that ran into this hole, and found out it was alittle to deep.. They just got through winching him out.. water was up to the windshield, and he was not even in the deepest part of the hole yet..
And here are a couple of shots I got of the XJ's... The Maroon one was on 33's I think, and he was running Green Mamba, wet and wild and Jeffs ledges.. So now more excuses JR ... :

And thats my little trip report...
