If you are reading this from home, you need to get up to Buena Vista! There is a great bunch of NAXJA people up there and the trails are awesome!

I went up Sunday afternoon and came home late yesterday. We ran Iron Chest yesterday, I didn't take any pics. We also played on the entrance to the Grizzly Lake trail and visited St Elmo. Nobody broke and it was a lot of fun!
 
There definitely was a massive amount of crap thrown about. Hard to say on whom it landed the heaviest.
 
I had fun. We slept in the Hilton:

My back was killing me so Zac and Nancy did Iron Chest:

A pathfinder in front of us. They drove really well. At the bottom of the big scree slide, there was some kind of vehicle.
