Here I am climbing up a hill. It's hard to tell, but this hill is fairly steep and I was having some difficulty climbing it. There were times I had to back up slightly and gun it forward just to make it up. I could have walked it faster than driving it, but where's the fun in that?

Two hours later... well, not really. It felt like it though. I finally get to the top of the hill.

Here is Richard Jurey's Jeep after sliding into a tree. He was driving down this embankment when he slid into a tree, ruining his splashguard. He had to be winched away from the tree before being able to continue.

Well, that sucked. I was backing up and didn't see the tree directly behind the driver's side tail light and backed right into it.

It looks worse here. I plan on banging out this dent the best way I can and put a rear quarter plate to protect and hide my rear corners.

Garrett climbing up the first step. For being a small step it sure was a pain to get up. Both Garrett and I scraped our pan trying to get up. Garrett just crawled up but since I have crappy tires I had to get a running start and hit it hard.

Another dent on my Jeep. I was backing up and didn't see the small boulder directly behind me until I hit it. The damage is very minor, and I plan on replacing the bumper anyway.

Check out the trail of red clay behind him. This red clay came from Pole Road in Moore that has been tucked in different spots underneath the Jeep that Garrett didn't wash off. I guess it's washed now. He replaced it with mud from Disney.

The first day I had my windshield down, you can see part of my windshield in this picture that I took of Garrett climbing rocks. Later it got to be so hot that I put my windshield up so I could put my top up and give us some shade.

Here is a small cave that both Dennis and I parked in. Unfortunately you can't see our vehicles inside. The cave was somewhat cool so I didn't have to worry about sitting in a hot Jeep when it was time to go. Just outside of it you can see Richard Jurey's Jeep.

The custom 4x4 was trying to climb up this hill when his driver's side front tire went up in the air and just didn't come back down, flipping this rig on it's top. Everyone else ran over to help him, I just reached for my cell phone.

It is difficult to see, but the cooler strapped to the back had popped open, dumping out his entire contents of beer and bottled water, mixing it with the oil that came out of his engine. He waited a few minutes, turned the key and it fired right up.

He is back at it again. The only other thing that happened is that his spare battery fell out and was dangling by a strap. Someone was nice enough to disconnect the battery and place it out of the way.

Robert Jones' OkieZuk tipped on it's side. From what I've heard his Suzuki is on it's side more often than anyone else I know. He drives it fast and hard. It's a good thing he trailers it. Then again, he drives his tow vehicle pretty fast too. On the way to Disney he flew past me as if I was standing still.

One of the very few times Garrett is stuck. Here he is sitting on his hood controlling his winch while Cary gives it gas trying to get it out of this big mud pit. I should have taken a picture before tried to winch out, he was REALLY stuck!
