I got to go with Rob on his maiden voyage of his new axle. You will all be happy to know that everything held together perfectly. Way to go Rob!

The trail was kinda crowded and the river was kind of high, but not terrible. I broke a hub in the squeeze at winch hill #3. We couldn't get the hub out, so I ran the rest of the trail with a handicap. Still, we made it from Eagle Lake staging to Meadow Lake in under 5 hours, including stops for repairs, stops to eat, and waiting for other groups to get out of the way. It was a great day, but now my Jeep needs some serious attention.
