1ST DAY HELLS REVENGE!
this is as close as we got to the top of Lion's Back.....because the girls seen this near the bottom...
the kids want some action...."let's play".
we got a bunch of rain the night before.....and it was a little cool to start off with
we made our way to the "Over Look" without much trouble....I was thrilled how well the Sidekick was doing without lockers....too bad we didn't get many pictures of it....
Cliff broke a birf backing up from the over look...so he was running in 3 wheel drive....and didn't make the ledge on the far left, causing him to test out the Pig Pen cage....it works great! We caught the roll over on video too......
after someone rolls....everyone takes it a little ezer....I just went up with the Sidekick (unlocked) with no trouble.....
well, they took it ez until we got to the Hot Tubs.....remember the rain? the tubs have about a foot of water in them....making it real hard to get out of....
Mitch did well alone......just about got out.......
then these nice guys came over and told him how to flop it and please the crowd......lol
Mitch is a good sport.......his Jeep has been there and done that!
this was the guy that was spotting Mitch and talkin' crap about Zuks......
see the Purdy Jeep? Let's call him "Spot"
see Spot roll........
someone toss that dog a bone.....LOL
back side of Lion's back
2ND DAY PRITCHETT CANYON
at the beginning of Pritchett Canyon was another rolled Toyota
we took it real easy off the edge.....and everyone made it safe.
this Red Toyota thought our junk was cool.......he was the only rig we saw climb up the Rock Pile without help!
We met some real nice guys and gals waiting just before the Rock Pile and partied with them while waiting hours for our turn....
great view of an Arch along the trail......
Pig Pen slipped out of his "straight Jacket" and climbed up to the Arch....
by the end of the trail....Ronnie just went nuts and hammered it out....lol
