Well folks, it was a beautifully sunny, muddy, rutted, tight, twisty, pinstripe-and-mild-carnage-filled day. Once again, a fantastic time with the crew, and I was pleased to meet and run with Young in his quite-capable Ruby, Cassidy and Marlene in the TRD SE, and Chris and Brandon in the Ti. Ya'll are Good People(tm).
We had
ten rigs consisting of
three Jeeps and
seven FJs, and ended up splitting into two groups of 6 and 4. These are pics from the "Sac-Up Group", consisting of 5 FJs and 1 Jeep. We did a quick warmup on
Powerline South, then ran
Sac-Up, ate some lunch and took a look at the
3-Step obstacle on Lower Powerline, then ran
Lake Isabel up as far as we could (stopped at a second washout). Special thanks to my friend Shelby who sat co-pilot with me on this run, we got a decent batch of pictures.

Pre-run lineup at the parking area:
Ben on the warmup run on Powerline South:
The fender-buster was much more rutted than previously, and the trail in general was a nastier again than last time.
Doh! Custom trail mod. I did not heed Cassidy's warning and went left on an obstacle when I should've stuck right. I didn't remember having trouble here before on the last two Sac-Up runs, come to find out it's because we took a different route this time! :|
And off into the sunset, the end to a fun day.
