Rowher was a great time. I'd guess that there were about 200 people there at its peak. Watching the big boys play was cool. But the trail was fun too. easy hill climbs at the south end of the trail. There was snow at the lookout. The back side was all snow and mud. Very sloppy. I heard that someone even rolled back there, but I have no details.
Here's a link to my picasa pics if you like.

I didn't hear anything about a roll over. I've been back there when there was quite a bit of snow on the back side and it can get a little hairy going down a couple of those hills, you really have to commit to it as it's easy to get sideways if you try to slow down or stop.That which does not kill me postpones the inevitable.

Wow! Looks like a blast, and that Truggy who won the $100 probably needs it for gas for the drive home! How big are those tires??
Joe if you're saying you wouldn't take your "little" Jeep on it I think I'll wait a few (years) to check it out.USMC F&AM

Details on the roll over
One guy got stuck in the mud, on the trail. His buddy, behind him, tried to go around the stuck jeep to pull him out. As he was going around, the muddy ground gave way, and he rolled 6 times down the slope. They were able to the jeep back on its wheels and it fired right up. The jeep was able to make it back to the trailer. The driver was ok. He got some bruising on the face, but no serious damage. He even made it to work today. He's a mechanic, so in fine jeeper fashion, he already started fixing his jeep.It was like that when I got here.

If you know him, I picked up his 2 1330 spares and a spare fuel pump on sunday morning.
