Brave jeeper hauling a camp trailer up a obstacle on Fins & Things. He did make it after a few tries. (A 710 could have held all this stuff) |

Paul on Kenny's climb |
|
|
|
Another steep desent on Fins and Things. Everyones tires were squealing heading down this one. |
|
|
|
|
This gives you an idea of how steep these climbs and desents are. |

|
The top end of "the waterfall" on Poison Spider Mesa. What a great trail! The best (ahem) was to come though. |
|
|
|
The famous "wedgie" obstacle on Poison Spider Mesa. No problems at all in a Pinz. |

Douwe and the front windshield after "modification." |
|
|
|
|
Here's Ann after the tipover.. Looks pretty calm huh? She did walk a lot of the trail after that.. |
|
|
|
This was one of the nastiest dropoffs on the whole Golden Spike trail and of course it was raining very hard when we did it. |
|
|
|
Paul going through the Golden Crack obstacle with some "Wyoming weight" on his Left Rear. |
|
|
|
The 6x6 walked right across the golden crack. The 710's did too but were much more entertaining |
|
|
|
Front view of the casualty after the Golden Crack. . Typical scenerio, too much tilt, wheel turned, Not paying enough attention.. FLOP. |
|
|
|
|
..From the bottom. No serious damage |
|
|
|
Ego bruised but not much else damaged. |
|
|
|
Park was stuck in the same crack that flipped me over. A tug with a strap got him out. |
|

|
Park out of the evil crack. |

Climbing the Golden Stairs. Notice the trashed Xterra in the background. |
|

Ron DePugh and "Mog Central" Ron and the moggers were great hosts again this year. |
|
|
|
Eric Johnson solved the problem of transporting his 416 Mog and having a place for his family as well. How about a Freightliner Flatbed with a
24ft. Tounge haul travel trailer minus the wheels strapped to the flatbed. |
|
|
|
Here's the business end off the setup. Still plenty of room for the Mog. Eric found this whole setup suprisingly cheap. |
