Wait a second Josh, isn't it 1-1? Lol
Yeah last time I had manzanita that close was Colorado. My first scratches in the clear coat. Thanks Rick! That shackle bend is on you though.
Indeed that was a complete run. 10 rigs where 4 had no issue getting up the tree if I remember right. Meeting Dreamer (Brian) and his copilot Steven and Ellie was a pleasure and hope you guys make the meeting this week.
Couple pics of me moving rocks and logs. Will check the bids that Richie did a great job on. Thanks man!

I got to Placerville limping it up the hills and something finally let loose in the Rear End... Pulled up the Transfer Case Stick and used the front end to get home...
It sounded like a spider gear or something along that line as it was slipping and grinding mainly in turns.
I will pull apart and see how bad after I get a little more sleep.
Otherwise was a GREAT Day!!! Thanks Josh for planning and leading, and Thanks John for tugging a bunch of us out 🙄
Brian's NEED List before running Hell Hole again:
1) Winch
2) More Padding on the drivers side bar between the windshield and rollbar (Wacked my head twice on it yesterday), new seats have me sitting higher and well...

Thanks again for everyone's help and guidence! Had a blast despite a fall in the creek and my wife calling in a missing persons report(I wish I was kidding).
Walked away with only minor damage, and a small rattle in the rear some where, not sure what it is yet, maybe something to do with my ebrake that I tested lol.
Looking forward to strawberry next weekend!
If anyone has any pictures post them up!

All 10 vehicles made it down to the last river. 2 did not cross...
Started heading out and got to the main tough spot were the creek runs down the trail.
First 2 up and out just fine, 3rd used own winch. This is now putting me next at around 6:00ish IIRC. After a valiant try, John got his rig turned around and pointed downhill to give me a tug with his winch. Basically kept him there for the next few rigs, as we were all about the same...
By the time what was now being nicknamed WhtWale got there, it was oh'dark thirty, cold, and just plain getting late. Rick crawled up after we got Carl out and we were on our way out.
I think we got out to the trailhead around 10:00-11:00ish
