I have 40 pics there that I did a bit of adjusting on and such. If people want me to post them in the thread I can do that too. It was really cool getting to meet everyone and see the huge variety of rigs get through stuff. Oh and if anyone has pictures of me in my Samurai, I'd love to get them at full resolution so I can play a bit with them in photoshop. Not often that I get action pics of myself, seeing as I'm the one with the camera usually.

Cheers guys,

Hey now, I always take pics of you.... oh wait... no, I ALWAYS forget my camera... you win. Wish I could have made it today guys, looks like you had a blast. While you all were having fun I had the pleasure of sitting at the weigh station in fort collins getting the rubber glove treatment. But, hey, no fines, which means I can keep the scout! Look forward to meeting you all at some point here!

Thanks to everyone who came and made this such a great run! Thanks to everyone who contributed to the giveaway! And a BIG THANKS for everyone who brought food! Thanks to Stephanie and Hugh who managed to do 99% of all the cooking!

A special thanks goes out to young Stephanie Bridges who helped me with the raffle drawing!

Great to see new faces and meet new people. What a great group of folks...including the young ones who were all really nice, polite and well behaved...the total opposite of what I was as a kid...

And another BIG THANKS to Chris for putting the site together and making it work so well!

Thanks go to everyone! Me & my wife & my daughter really enjoyed the day..........what a great group of people. We've been on other runs over the years with different groups & have heard some derogatory comments from some people because we did not have (what they consider) the right type of vehicle to be out wheeling & enjoying life. It means a great deal to us to be with folks that share the passion of wheeling.

Thanks again to eveyone

On the way out, I blew an axle u-joint (the axle u-joints don't really like 37" tires). I didn't want to hold anyone up so I told Aaron we'd just bug out the easy way in 2wd.

Here's some pics.............

I have to say big group runs like this are fun as hell and are very anjoying! Especially with the diversity of 4x4's on here it makes it interesting and entertaining. We should do more big group runs on trails that accommodate everyone!

I agree it was a great run, and I plan on bringing my own vehicle next time. We made it back home safe and sound, sometime around 9:30 or 10:00.

Thanks for a great run!

Good meeting you all and you all are a great group. Unreal diversity of vehicles and even though some got some rock rash I saw not a single sad face.
I made it home in Zombie mode. Thought I was lost and made a call. I was on the right road still. Boy was I out of it. I am in bed by 7:30 to 8:30 and up at 4 usually.

Thanks for the invite.

This was the 4x4 trip I have been promising my family would happen for years, ie... the large group with lots of kids and women. I know most times when Bridgett comes along there aren't many girls to chat with. She had a wonderful day!

As soon as I can find my Photobucket password I will throw up the pics I have.

I don't know how to set up the share album function. I have lots more if anyone wants them. I know I missed some folks, I was busy chasing kids.

I don't know about the share album function, but here is what I do. I just start a new album in photobucket and when it loads the pictures, I do a copy and paste of the link. It seems to work fine for me, but all I load onto photobucket are pictures I don't mind sharing anyway.

I think one of the reasons that we had so many folks on this run was partially due to the reminder that Chris put on the site that showed up all the time and the fact that the run was planned far enough in advance to allow everyone to plan around it. This is one of the reason I wanted to get people posting runs on the calendar now so that we can have more runs like this. There are certainly enough trails around that feature many of the same things as this one...

Thanks a bunch. I took at least twice as many and picked out the good ones and did a bit of Photoshopping on them. If anyone wants a higher resolution(i.e. bigger sized) version for a wallpaper or anything let me know.

When my DSLR is fitted with a new, working lens, I am going to get my kid to run a few through for me so I can get more proficient with the basics. She knows a lot more about my photoshop software than I do.

I think for this run, the stills did do the trail justice.

Steve, excellent pictures as always!

Jamie, thanks for posting up all those great pictures. Good to meet you too.

And, of course, it was good meeting everyone I had not said hello to in person before. Joe, with the red Tacoma, who are you on here? I know you took a different rig so I can't seem to match you up.

For some reason when I click on the link, it does goes to photobucket.com and I cannot copy and paste the link since all the characters are not shown on what is in your post. Weird.

Seems to want to stress test the tip angle on his rigs for some reason...I was waiting for the Taco to start lifting wheels....

Told you it was! That's impressive, man! Not that I am checking your rear out, either...I could see that you were losing weight every time I have seen you since you started going...


Anyway....why is this posted in the 'carnage' section? Something I am missing here or does Steve's mind have more twists than the rest of us can follow?

I can see the headlines: "Man loses half his ass on 4 wheeling trail. The Forest Service issues health warning about the dangers of off road driving..."

Now...if you all keep mentioning my tape worm...name of Dribble, BTW, I'll just have to pull it out and introduce it the next time everyone is together..and it really won't be pretty...nor enjoyable for anyone...

I believe it was Pathrat that started the whole tapeworm thing (where is she, BTW? She is usually chiming right in there on this kinda stuff..), even though it has been mentioned many times before in my life, but Pathrat...see what you have started! You are probably going to be laughing as much as LaDawn does...Oh well...

Yeah..thanks Jon...Jon, my friend...uh huh....

Right here and I only had one tapeworm story; didn't Aaron say you had one??? :D
