The stats: 5 4wds, 8 ATVs, 1 motorcycle, 11 stops for litter. Only 2 of the signs we put up have bullet holes in them.

More later...

Amazing time!! First time out in the XJ, it did great for not having the ARB's plumbed in or the sway bar disconnected. :D Great to see you dudes!

Overall it was an awesome day! We were able to have fun and share a meal while doing this "work" type stuff.

I was wondering how the fire ban would affect the amount of litter. For the most part, there was very little trash, even in the usual places. At the top of Saxon, we talked with the motorcyclist we saw on the trail. He told us he has been up a few times a week and we were the first people he'd seen at the top this season. I think the fire bans discouraged many from camping this year.

Dylan brought his son Beau, who was a joy to have on the trail.

The "poser ditch" is perfect for twisting out an XJ's suspension. It is stable enough to get out and check your clearances.

We finished the day by handing out T-shirts. Beau got his first ever, most coolest, ever, "Jeep Shirt!"

Found another relic from an era when mining was active.
