Saturday afternoon, A group of us met up at Palmer Carrs to do the spring run out at Knik. We had Dan and Frankie in the fodge, Mike and wife in the dodge on 35s, Jesse and wife in the bronco, and (Sorry, can't remember your name) and son in the super duty on 38s.
We had a pretty harmless trip up to the washout/gorge before wolf point, and setup camp and had dinner (Great bobs BTW Jesse, I'm lookin forward to those again on the next trip).
Jesse decided to hang back at camp, while the rest of us went on to atleast go check out the beaver ponds. The first water hole was as far as we made it :rofl:
First Mike in the Dodge dropped in... and that cost him a tie rod, and a tire (Made the rest of the trip with a stock spare tire...lol). After monkeying around with that for a couple hours, Dan decided he would let the Fodge have a turn... and not 60 seconds later... he blows his tire off the bead. After monkeying around with that, Superduty driver guy and I decided it was time to turn back and get to camp (Without attempting the water/ice hole).
We made it back to camp without further issue, and after "some" hours around the camp fire, hit the sac.
Nate and Bill showed up in Superman the next morning just in time for breakfast and bloody maries...lol After some time around the fire again, we headed back out. Jesse caught his steering stabalizer on some ice, and we had to cut it off... and what a shocker, Nate blew his PS line again:32:.
After some playing around at Jim Creek, we headed back to the parking lot, loaded up and headed out.
I did not take a single picture... :wink5:
But others did so... mayb'e they'll post up. If not, you'llj ust have to take my word for it...:54:
