Well not much to talk about on this trip was an easy one. Left home at 9 am hit the trail at about 10:30 and got off the trail about 4.

I got stuck on the first puddle, when I dropped my diff on to a mount that was under the water. This was about 5 mins. into the trail.

Ran my engine up to about 240 degrees and boiled the fluid inside. This is what happened when I restarted my engine.

Other 2 guys with me trying to get up a muddy hill. Wasn't deep just really slick.

My last minor stuck, I wasn't really stuck I just dropped my rear end into a hole and when it stopped the engine died. I couldn't get it restarted at that angle to I had to get pulled backwards onto level ground.

After this one of the Jeeps busted hit locking hub in the rear, ended up winching him up the hill cause he was in the middle when it snapped. Here's a pic I took from the top of the hill

That trail goes up to an old mining claim. Not sure exactly how far back because once to get to the top of the mountain it gets narrow and you can't get a Jeep though so thats where we usually stop and turn around. There's a small field at the top of some tall ass wild flowers, that go almost to the top of my hood :)
