Ok here's some pics of yesterdays run. Was supposed to be a overnighter. But we changed it for a Jeeper, who didn't show up. Anyways was a good run if your into following a moose buggy trail through a marsh!

I was told there was a ledge under the water here. Hmm how big could the ledge be? Well it was deep enough I'm sitting on the frame and not bottom to be found.

Was a great day had by all. Damage, 1 blow 12,000 pound mega winch motor. I stalled my 12,000 a couple times also. Other then that no damage. Cept for some egos, everyone getting stuck about 10 times each. Me about 15 I was always leading though the deep shit, and then following through the marshy shit. Both of which = stuck.:boxing :boxing

I had a great time. I didn't get a pic of the best stuck of the day. I scouted out a great line for like 10 mins. Walked it 2 or 4 times. Jumped in the bronco hit the gas and the whole right side fell about 37" I was about 1' over from my planned line and sank like a ****ing rock. Oh well I got a winch right :banghead
