well the best thing about where its parked at is 1" its been parked there for like 4 years now 2: the security for the Card Club keeps an eye on that parking lot for my dad 3: the ones that Know enough to want to steal it know better because they know my dad and 4: even if someone did wana steal it they couldnt get the tires unlocked, cant hotwire it cause it has the Chevy VATS2 Ignition system, and its left in 1st gear and 4 low when its parked so if they tryed to tow it anyware there fucked. but thats all besides the poin cause its gona get parked at my house in Carson or my house in Tracy. lol

![]() There IS something wrong with "having a little fun at water crossings". One issue alone that has the potential to shut down a trail is water quality! Everytime we drive through a water crossing, we kick up silt that eventually get's into the watershed and this causes water quality problems. The more you "play" in the water, the more silt you stir up. This is the reason most of us don't do it. Not because of "cracked heads and headers"

![]() I tend to stay away from organized runs, just too many folks on the trail. Look for me on the 'Con in a Silver YJ w/purple flames on 42's Happy Trails!

well as far as the actual run is conserned it isnt too busy cause the last few years have been rained out. so this year probubly wont be to busy. but the local club goes up the day before to run the harder trails. and theres only a few of em. so if you show up to camp the day before im sure they wont mind you tagin long. Clear Creak isnt the hardest wheeling but it is alot of fun.

Nice jeep.
Molina has moved to April this year to hopefully be a little less water/rain. I was there last weekend, and it rained all day on Sunday for Quick Silver. Ugly all over the place. Navy-Jeepster |

i love clear creak when it rains. ran the loop last year in the snow and loved it. i got stuck on the V but then almost everyone in our group did. and i had to get winched one another part cause i couldnt get tracktion on a few wet rocks and we where in a hury to get off the trail before it got worse so we winched me rather than waitin for me to try to get over it. but then again my XJ was open fron with only a posi in the rear 3.5 inch lift and 33's so i think i did realy good considering people with full lockers and 35's and alot better flex than me got stuck in the same places i did so i felt good lol. i hope to see yall there next month im planin on goin. ill probubly be in the Wanderin whelers Campground
