    The harder parts of the trail where we ran into you guys was 2n61Y, also known as Heartbreak Ridge.

    Mad props for getting a bunch of 2wd's through there.

    Super fun trail!

    Haven't put it on yet, but will send you a pic when I do!

    It was a lot of fun spotting, glad we we're able to get everyone down! Especially after I heard some people were talking about turning around. It's great to conquer a real challenge :thumbsup:

    I'm not sure his username, but I believe his name was also Mike, he jumped right in to help spot! As with most of us, learning as we go!

    Also @ItsRichieRich got a crash course in spotting for that last section down at the very bottom. After I helped him get through he navigated the rest of the pack down it so I could continue helping up top with less runs up that damn hill haha :fistbump:

    It was all a team effort. Couldn't be happier with the group we had and how positive everyone was through it all.

    Dude, a lot of fun! I'd like to run that trail again sometime. Good seeing you James!

    Btw, do you have Will's phone number? I got a short video of him coming down the rocks if he'd like me to text that to him. I know he isn't on here too often anymore.

    Nice, I was following the California trails book and it seems to be a bit outdated hahah. Didn't know we were on the heartbreak ridge section though. It was a great time! Cool to run into you guys too, sorry we held y'all up for a bit hahah

    I'm not going to lie, I wanted to bitch out on the trail. But once I figured out no one was going to back out, I had to make it easier for everyone. Thanks to Mike and a few others to helping me move a few rocks around to make it easier for those that didn't have clearance. HUGE shout out to @eccracer104 and @YotaGurlIAm for spotting us. If it wasn't for you guys, we'd be sitting ducks.

    I didn't think it was going to happen, but I got to put my sliders to use on this trip. @Shmellmopwho you'd be proud.

    Great trip, thanks @ODNAREM for the swag bag! Didn't get many pics on the trail, have to work on that. If you got pics of my truck, Please post them up

    @erice stuck between a rock and a hard place

    Some pics of @YumaTRD going thru the 1st hard spot on the trail

    The theme for the trail for the day was, Jeeps with broken axles as you can see by exhibit A in the background, blocking the easier line.

    Getting ready for the night run @erice led us on

    My trail damage from the weekend, new dent in my driver side LCA not the first won't be the last. That was the loud banging noise my truck made on the first obstacle

    I thought trail etiquette was to not mess with the trail and leave it as you found it
