Well it was going to be a run up Lefthand Canyon to mess around with my buddies, but then John showed up. :) Non of us wanted to hit carnage, but with some chatting we decided we'd give it a try and turn around when we had enough (which I thought would be in the first 10 mins).

The list included:
Me: stock XJ - 29's - open
Ryan: XJ - 2" lift - 31's - open
Ryan: Toyota PU - stock - 31's - open
Andy (I think) - XJ - 3" lift - 31's - open
John - 6" WJ - 35's - locked
YJ guy - 37's - locked.

Anyway, you can see that we were headed toward a fun day of wheeling. Keep in mind this is the first trail ever for 3 of the guys.

With some good spots and a extra rock here or there we made it all the way through. Some tiny dents and a couple scratches were all that came from carnage (no one took a strap). BUT we did run into plenty of people that didn't fair out to well. A Scout blew up a radiator, a XJ broke a front axle, some HS kids took there moms 4 runner up there and bounced it off rocks and trees, and a TJ broke a lower control arm. I got a little cocky and tried an offshoot coming down Lefthand that dug into my rocker pretty good.

At one point there were 4 different groups in one spot going up and coming down (took about an hour to go 100 feet). We saw some pretty piss poor attitudes up there, but I guess that's to be expected at carnage.

All in all a great day of wheeling though!

I didn't get to many pics, because I was pretty busy driving/spotting. But here's the ones I got:

2648

I'll add more pics when I get them from other people.

Blame all the fun on me. ;)
Yeah, that one spot was a Cluster, an hour for 100ft, but it was entertaining to watch. Thanks for letting me tag along.

Thanks for letting me tag along.

Sounds to me like that should read "Thanks for tagging along with me"!

looks like you had a great time. I have the same picture of my grand at the same spot. Look at mine about three sections down. Last picture of the set.
