I think I am going to be there with the Nor Cal Crawlers on Tuesday night to Sunday operating winch hill two. Still unsure if I want to go for that long or not though, but I should be there.

[Hyena]

Cool, i think i am gonna go.

The trip was great. If anybody went hungry it was there own fault the food was awsome. I was sorry that the Marlin Crawler booth was not there but there were plenty of other vendors represented. The spottere for the winch hills were awsome. The Cal Four People out did themselves this year. We are ready and excited for next year. The only down side to the whole trip was some clown running a chain saw one night about midnight . There were lots of people complaining about him .Wish we could have met more people . Looking forward to seeing everyone on MCR5.

Yes the second photo is one of the winch hills , I dont rember which one . The jeep is stainless steel Daves , he likes to get up on three legs. the short wheelbase vehicles had a little bit of a problem but the long wheel base crawlers went right up. I will post a video tomorrow.
RokCrawlinToy , it was great meeting you. You worked hard up there and deserve a relaxing time on MCR.

Video 1, guy needs to let some air out of those tires... they didn't look like they were catching any traction.
