[Archy Chris]

A big thanks goes out to Brandon for securing the lodge for several nights, so that we had a place to rest our heads before venturing out to scout the local trails, the good food, cold beers and the best part was catching up on FJ talk with Terry (Cookn), Kevin (Fatbrat), Pat and his wife (local NMFJers), Chris and family (local NMFJer), Jake (Brandon's brother-in-law & 4Runner owner), and Steve and Pam owners of the Camp of the Tall Pines. We had a great time exploring the area, and those FJers that debated about coming out missed out on a great time! For the TOTH event we have enough trails for beginners to experienced FJers - trails for scenery and great vistas overlooking the Tularosa Basin, mountain dirt roads that take you through beautiful pine tree forests with abundant wildlife (we saw well over 100 turkeys, mule deer, elk and I scouted some challenging trails that will require at a minimum a 3 inch lift and 33 inch tires or (these are unimproved powerline roads that have no maintenace with lots of limestone ledges and washed out drainage crossings). Brandon and few others have photos, so they will start posting pics of what we scouted and this will be a great TOTH event, so mark those calendars for Labor Day weekend and I hope to see you all there. One other thing, the Camp of the Tall Pines is a great facility for hosting the FJ event and is much better than the previous TOTH event site in Ruidoso. Adios, Chris
