    Near the pits, fooling around. We explored a few small caves but none of them lead anywhere. Decided to move on. We found a huge yoke from some kind of industrial mining equipment.. my buddy is gonna use it as an ash tray


    My friend Lewis is driving his blue lifted Liberty.



    Things start getting twisty and steep...



    I make it to the top. Traction was good today.. no greasy mud to slide me sideways into trees, or impede traction. I never aired down.



    Moving on down the trail...



    Heading down a steep hill. At this point I can't see shit.. depending on my spotter :bigthumb:



    This climb is pretty nasty. Obviously things are steeper than they look in all of these pictures.. it was pretty tough to walk on foot up most of this stuff. My friend in the Libby tries first.



    He ended up winching to the top. The relatively stock suspension maxed out, and he kept lifting wheels and losing traction. He gets to the top, and I'm up.



    I try this line first. Probably the most difficult way up. Steep ledge on the right, ditch on the left so things are off camber too much. Couldn't get up that way.




    Took a different line down the center instead and made it up with a little throttle :bigthumb:



    At the top.


    From there, we continued to the Ocala National Forest to clear and scout some trails for our upcoming campout. Ran some deep water and narrow trails, but nothing too spectacular. Didn't get stuck today :

    "Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to the countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process. The responsibility of the United States in this conflict is to eliminate weapons of mass destruction, to minimize the danger to our troops and to diminish the suffering of the Iraqi peole." - Nancy Pelosi circa 1998

    And your rebuttal Ms. Communist bitch?

    Them are 33s under your Jeep? Look like 35s for some reason.

    As for the alligator, we want a pic of you wrestling one, like on Happy Gilmore
