    The trip was awesome! There's nothing like swimming in spider lake after a long day on the trail. It was cool to see everyone come to Jeff's aid as well.

    Um...what?

    AWWW, come on buttercup, I only sighted bears IN camp 5 times. Then your food, Conners and the truck across the way. They just like to mess with you and Jeff

The entertainment in the box was outstanding. (especially Rob). As for the bears I'll let Greg tell that story. let's just say the bear put them on a diet.

    We ended up arriving at little sluce at around 11:30 Friday night. Camped there then sat we ran out to he spillway for tacos and raffle tickets. Rtf had a great turnout. Lots of people eating and checking out the vendors. Headed back to the little sluce and decided to hang out there again instead of continuing on to Buck. We ended doing a short night run from there and On the slab above the box Jeff broke a u joint. This locked up the steering and in trying to turn the hydro assist ram was ripped off the axle. This happened just after dark. After receiving help from some drunk box spectators, Joe skills, Jeff doing most of the work, my excellent flashlight skills, and a scout with an onboard welder, we were able to get back to camp at 3:00 am. I'm missing a lot of detail. Maybe Jeff can fill it in. Anyway we made it out by 12:30 on Sunday, despite a dodge with three wheel drive and questionable steering. I want to thank everyone for a great time. Can't wait for next time.

    So who's buying an onboard welder. 😁 Mark

    Rick rock has a welder. So we just need him to commit to all trail runs.

    2 years in a row something has come up. Hoping next year we actually make it up there. Based on the forum and FB posts, it's getting quite the positive reputation.

    It was awesome to watch Rob try to crawl the box, then find the skinny peddle and spank Little Sluice! The sound of that motor gives me goose bumps! 😳
