Well we made it home!

Thank you everyone for making this a very enjoyable event for me and the misses. This was her first year but I can honestly say it won't be her last. She really enjoyed the awesomeness of the scenery. She did a great job to not panic on the more scary drop offs. She had a great time meeting all of the folks I have been talking about.

And I had a great time seeing old friends and lots of new friends too!

Although the sporttrac isn't a JEEP it did okay on the trails we took it on. No clearance and basically street tires made it more challenging (and fun) to pick lines on things the Cherokee just drives over.

I am already looking forward to next year.

Made it home last night around 7, took the senic route up through Olathe and then east to gunnison.

Thanks from having me along on your trail rides and for guiding me through the rough stuff. Someone found my phone up on black bear this morning. Right after that big long mud hole up on top.

Anybody post pictures up yet?

I second that with Tad! Gabe, I am glad you found a way to make it this year and I hope you will be able to join us in the future. Your Cherokee is very cool. I love the S badge. ;)
