AHHHH Pritchet, one of the most beautiful canyons that nobody ever sees!!!
After arriving at the meeting place at 8:50, and realizing that the trail left at 8, I had to play catch up! I caught up with the registered group at the first "real" obstacle, the dry creek crossing.
We made great time with very few problems, 1 starter died, and 2 broken driveshafts. We only had about 13 of us, but 6 of those were CJ-5s!!
Rocker Knocker was our longest delay with a couple in our group being very grateful for the newely installed winch anchors. I made it up Rocker Knocker very easily by doing a front end burn (shifting my rear axle into neutral and using my front end to pull me around), this is the first time I've used that manuver and it worked perfectly. Have I mentioned that I love my twin stick!!!!! Pictures of it are still coming.
It was a great trail and we crested Yellow Hill about 2:30.
The "Un-named Ledge"
Our fearless co-leader, Mrs. Drsqrl as Drtsqrl spots her on Axle Hill.
Me on Axle Hill, it's all about bumping it!
Gunner is a great spotter!!
The Rock Pile bypass.
I've had problems before on this one, so I made sure I gave it enough gas this time. ;D
Way too close for me!!!!!!!!!!
Yellow Hill
