here is the saddest carnage of all... The park is full of trash! Apparently when you can have a crowd of 2000 and become famous but you don't have to pick up after yourself..

My carnage was more of a close call... I lost the last bolt on this side of the tranny cross member as I was washing the under carriage in Rock Bottom creek a few miles from home. And ended up an easy fix. and a lost bushing... Not worth mentioning, but is loud as hell.

Yeah its ridiculous they hold these events there but they cant do any cleanup. The end of Maverick near the ledges was trashed hard. Would like to thank everyone in my Saturday group who helped clean up trash on the trails. Big thanks to SW86 for letting us fill up the bed of his comanche with trash.

Being fullsize I rubbed every tree out there and the body shows it. I lost both tail lights, dented the passenger door in enough I can't roll the window up, rubbed the sides so much that the bedside is flat and the area where my hard top went is angled, hit the front fender so hard it broke one of the hood pins. My front drive shaft came apart 3 times but I got it back together each time.

We followed them for a minute and then ran into each other again going opposite directions.

My trailer I was hauling my Jeep on decided to loose a bearing on the way Saturday morning. I ditched the truck and trailer, threw everything in the Jeep and rolled on. Lesson to be learned- I know lots of us take along spare tires, but a spare hub with a bearing installed would be under $50 and would have been a huge help in this situation. So I will be putting one to the side and taking it with me on the next ride. Hope this is of value to someone else. I always keep the bearings greased well and inspected. I have never had this happen to me in all my years of towing. But it happened.

The pic of his door was from the same tree that got my windshield frame and the front driveshaft pulled apart on lower ditch. He did great though and Moose was a fantastic spotter as always! Had a blast rolling w/ these guys and the two razors that jumped in w/ us.

nothing serious for me. a leaky tranny cooler line and new spots to cut off on the rear flares. then at some point on sunday a tree decided to give the bed a hug. oh well, it matches the back now!

When you say full, you mean full...It was kind of funny watching the mj finish the trails loaded down with a bed full of trash. It was easy to tell what trails/hills they used for the events.

Just let me know when you want to mess with them. It was cool watching you bring that stock xj down Sidewinder, no damage and no straps.
