Before I start in on the weekend and wheeling... Aart! You are the Man! Folks... Aart, has been working on the CJ-7 for a little while now and has performed miracles upon miracles! The CJ has never run better, been more reliable, or been more fun than this last weekend!
So, now on to the weekend report...
We met some friends, Shane and Aleta, Kane, Mark, and Trent (owner of the "Beast") for some camping and wheeling on Friday night. Traffic was a lot of fun coming up the Pass... We finally arrived at our campsite around 9pm Friday evening.
Carmen and I bought a new RV and were dying to take it out...
Saturday morning, after a great breakfast, we watched Trent show us what "flex" really meant then we headed over to Bullfrog. It was Trent's first time on Bullfrog... and we had a great time watching his crawler maneuver through it. He had zero difficulty, as would be expected, and even took some unique lines...
This was Shane's first trail run after getting the Toyota back in trail worthy condition.
The mandatory ride through "Chicken Rock"
Then off to Bullfrog...
The Chuckwalla doing their push-ups...
Apparently, Kahlua thinks he is a Jeep Dog now...
The "Jeepeater" looked a little more washed out than I remembered it... but no worries, we scampered right through it.
We had a few issues with the Toyota not idling right... and stalling a bit on inclines and declines... so Shane took the bypass around the Jeepeater...
Oh yea... Meet the newest addition to the MyBrokenJeep's Jeep Dog Team! This is Abigail...
After a great ride through Bullfrog, we decided to check out (from a distance) our favorite little compound... Looks like to some folks have been evicted since we were last out here...
Sunday morning, we decided to do some exploring... took the long way around to Means dry lake bed and a couple of the other ones... Ran up through a sandy creek bed for a few miles and then came across an enduro bike race that was going on... Had a great lunch and then headed back.
Started picking up camp, and of course, leaving the area cleaner than we found it... Headed out around 4:30PM. I guess everyone else that needed to get down the hill on Sunday afternoon waited until the same time as we did... We rolled up to the house in Corona about 8:00PM.
A great weekend with great friends! Thanks to Shane and Aleta and Trent for the camping fun, trail fun, and the margarita fun (at night after the trails).
