We made it all the way threw. We were the only ones to go all the way threw. It was@#$#@% hard after the dance floor. There was alot of water and mud holes the hole trail and snow after the dance floor. We had water coming in my rig a couple of times. My wife said she is never going this early in the season again. She's used to july, august and september. It started snowing and raining sunday afternoon and took us about 6 hours after the dance floor. It was a great trip.

Nice poser pic Mike :flipoff2:

Really though, my shit would be on it's side in the same situation. I gotta get that figgured out.

Looks great and sounds like you had a great time. Rubicrawler has been trying to talk my wife and I into going for Memorial day weekend. I agree with your wife though... It's too damn cold right now for a family trip.

Josh, do you still have a bunch of loose leaf springs in the garage? Remember we added a leaf under the main leaf of John's shit? I need to do that to my camo Scout. But, I only have complete leaf packs, I'd have to disassemble and mix/match. Have any more leaves you'd part with?

You guys better bring spares. I broke two front axles. And don't be pussies, go all the way threw. This the best time of the year to go. The Heeper jamboree hasn't paved it and the water and mud is oh so deep. I ended up going the last 8 miles in 3 wheel drive. Detroit rear, powerlock front. Aired down to about 8 psi. Now I'v got to find another long side axle,I broke both of mine. Anybody got one.

July, when we go:D You two can camp further up the road so we don't have to hear you all night:p

When were you targeting to get married? Anytime before June is cold as hell. In Sept the days were nice, but the evenings cold.

I have a guy coming over to pick up my axles on Sat the 1st. You are welcome to come over then if you like.

Mike Elrod may be coming to pick up a spare axle shaft the same day.
