Andrew i would seriously look into those rear shocks bottoming out you were barely going over any rocks and they were hitting

The first rule of firehole is you do not run firehole when it's wet! I wish someone would have told me :) I'm just absolutely amazed that it ONLY took out the door. I can totally live with that, at least it wasn't a full door. That was an amazing recovery too, I think it only took us about a half an hour. Thanks again Terron and Andrew for helping me get it out without damaging it further. And the door still works fine! After bending it out just a tad the lock now works too, what more could you ask for! Well, maybe a new door......

But enough of that, it was a great run otherwise today. I'm so jealous of Andrew and Terron's rigs now, long arms are sweet.

You know, two times out of three I've managed to find the wrong line :) Upper woody just loves giving me body damage, guess I'm just a glutton for punishment.

Damn Jim you fell in early. I was much higher but then again I just gave it more gas and drove out.

Terron I still think my line through firehole is the line to take, all the cool kids are doing it :)

Paul I'll keep that in mind next time. I'm banning myself from using the skinny pedal for a while though, I break things :aagh:

I'm still dreaming of a better axle. Anyone want to donate a D60 :) I'm going to try to become a poor college student soon so the Jeep's going to get neglected for a while, back to the bunny runs for me :(
