So Nickangus, Rightseatsis, myself and a guy from work in a bronco meet up at the obstacle course on Saturday. We decide to play here a bit before trail riding.

Mary nails the teeter toter in our raffle built:

Rich thens balances in his Bronco. It's 4.88's locked fore & aft and riding on 37's, V8-5spd.

After that we head over to a small rock pile that has a wall right smack in the middle. The easy line is to the right, the harder line is to the left and of course the most difficult is climb the wall.

Nick leads left, I follow:

Rich takes his bronco up the wall, well at least the front...

Seems like the front drive shaft decides not to participate anymore. So we remove it

Rich heads back into Hollister for parts while Nick, Mary and I head out on the trails and drive up white rock trail and mcray road to the top for the obligatory poser group shot. Not much of a group, just two XJs....
