I'm back as well. I passed Jeff on my way home so I know they made it off the trail.

I think I have five pics. One is of the rattlesnake.

John's was a race to stay ahead of a group coming down behind us. That group turned out to be the Michigan guys we'd missed at Buck Island. They had a TJ and a JKU in their group.

The bear took a claw to the corner but no real damage. I think it opened up when it hit the ground.

I wanted to say thanks for waiting for me to fix my tire. (I hope I put on a good show) 😀

The way I have been keeping that truck nice and clean, I might be back down there to try it again latter in the season.

Hey! Where are the photos of me tossing rocks under your front end to support the front diff??!!!

That the heck! I'm not even getting credit for my limited effort (note that I am wearing gloves).

If you try that spot in the fall, you need to run that left line rather than going right at the tree. Outside of major rock stacking, the right side will ensure you some body damage. How wide are you? Remember that I run a 60 up front so I'm pretty wide too...

Just be careful, I pulled some rocks out of the hole on the left line to help support the front diff. lol

Brad, can you post your pics when you get a chance? 🙂

Finally got a chance yesterday to pressure wash the Jeep and noticed my front license plate is gone! rant

It's on one of those winch roller mounts and I forgot to take it off before getting on the trail. embarassed

Guess I'll wait a little while to see if it pops up anywhere before getting replacements. I'll secure it in a better location.

I lost my front plate a couple of years ago on the trail. It never got returned. I keep waiting for the cops to knock on my door asking why my vehicle was involved in a bank robbery get-away 😯

Yeah, maybe I'll just keep waiting. I registered my Jeep and FJ at the same time and they gave me consecutive plates. One ends in 5 and the other ends in 6. Easy to remember except I always forget which one is on which vehicle. 😀

I've never run a front plate on any jeep (or my trucks for that matter). Never been cited...

This was my only fix-it ticket (no front plate) on my Jeep.

I did the same thing on Fordyce one time. The front plate got washed down the river at the first water crossing. It's not too difficult or expensive to get new plates as long as you still have the rear one.
