    Yeah we had a few 2wd guys on stock tires. That was the biggest problem.

    Well for the 4 of us that continued on, we are barely reaching our final destination ay almost 8am. Took a wrong turn through some clay cow shit that caked the tires then tried turning around in soft and. .... all bad. Ended getting all 4 trucks stuck together and had 3 of us linked together with winches all puking together. Not the plan. But, we all made it alive

    For me it was 16 hours behind the wheel and over 100 dirt miles. Got to shoot some bad ass guns, watch some insane recoveries, eventually get myself stuck, had 1 rollover and 1 broken cv. Only damage i sustained was a bent up license plate i think from the whet crossing or during a recovery.


    Sorry to those that sustained damage especially the guy who rolled, but i wanna thank everyone for coming out with us for Sebastian. It was a crazy night but we did it

    Yeah talk about a night of recovery... We all walked away with more experience in desert wheeling, which I think is the silver lining in all this.

    The things required to pull bitches
    I walked away with cow shit all over my arm...

    Damn my winch was working double time. An hour of non stop pulling.

    I did most of the silty wash in 2wd. The times I used 4x4 was to pull people and get to a recovery spot. And pull out of a wrong turn into a ditch.
