Pics and Vids are looking good. That is impressive that your suzuki made up on whale rock. I tried to get on in, but I think I have to much junk in my trunk. haha.
I have a T-maxx 3.3 that I got 4 years ago. Now I want to get it out and play around with it. I even made snow chains for it out of jack chain. Its a blast. I'll have to look into the crawlers some day. It looks like a good winter hobby.

Yah, I am glad we did the night run. I have been on them before at other events and they always add a different dynamic to the trails. I like how you can see the steam coming off the crick in the pics, because the water was warmer than the air temp. Probably because our camp fire was hot enough to heat up the crick a little bit. haha.

Great pics and vids. Man... that hill coming down into the waterfall ravine is STEEP!
George's 42s are the only tires that didn't stick!
Thos night run pics and vids look cool as hell.
That was a fun cruise... me and Gary were laughing so hard
cause that Sami is such a rough ride. Every trail feels like the Mini Rubicon!

I wanna add a lot more trails. Since our club has grown significantly since '07 when me, Qball & Badabing basically made all the trails
that first year, then in '08 Gary, Nelson, Snatch Block & Wimpy where a huge help too which made things easier. We have some nice trails,
but I think the property still has more potential. We need to hike and scout the land more, find more rocks and find more ravines and cool obstacles.
I think with more saws and more manpower we should be able to really make some progress clearing
new stuff in the spring time in time for the first summer event. I"m thinking June and August for 2010, heck with that Oct weather.

Lots of potential for more trails I agree....lots more hard stuff available just gotta do it. 3rd weekend of june should be good after all rocks graduation parties and keep aug same...thats my vote

I always up to coming down and helping... The big stock loop that wraps up around the new waterfall trail there seems to be ALOT of old roads that break off to the left up there were they all run off to?
Also if your planning on walking it between now and Feb would be the time to do it while all the underbrush and leaves are gone so you will be able to see and plan your ideas much better just my opinion though
