Colorado Toyota Jamboree 2011!!!

Volcom · July 28, 2011, 02:50:54 PM

2011 goes down as the best Colorado Toyota Jamboree we've ever had! The turnout was unbelievable. Scotty & I knew it could be big and it happened. We had people from Virginia, Nebraska, & New Mexico attend. I talked to all of them and they all said it was worth their time & money to come out for the event. Congrats Scotty for putting on a KILLER event!

Big thanks to Scotty & Addicted Off Road for providing dinner for 100+ people on Saturday night!! Thank you vendors for making our raffle a success.

It was nice finally getting to put a face with a screenname. That's pretty much the reason for the event - getting fellow Toyota owners out wheeling.

Holy Cross was crazy with almost 30 rigs. No major issues on HC with rigs breaking down. Took us a couple hours to get everyone over and to the city but it was fun watching everyone. We were 5 for 7 in getting rigs to the top of Cleveland.

Carnage was another story for another day

It lives up to it's name. We started with close to 20 rigs and had mechanical and breakage issues with a couple. I broke a front driver's side main leaf right before the V-notch. I'm glad it broke when it did. It was a very easy fix (bailing wire & duct tape

) and I called it a day and drove out the entrance.

I'll post my pics tonight, I was wiped yesterday.

I will get the ones I have up in a bit. Mostly my truck since my dad was snapping pics.

Dan---- of course there is one of me on a winch line lol

My girl will get ours up later tonight I think. Can't wait to see the shots of hc on Friday! Chinaman was fun but I have to say that trail is so long and so rough it takes everything oh of you. Both times I have been on it this year it's been 6+ hours of bumpy road

I had a blast as well! I too was amazed by the amount of people there as well as everyone being extremely nice! The raffle was awesome! I had a great time wheeling as well as kicking people in the spine!!!

Here are some pics and vids I got. Not too many but some.

Roll on Cleveland Rock.

Whales Tail on Chinamans

Then these are some pics of my truck on Mosquito Pass on Sunday after we left camp. Dad and Kyle rode dirt bikes and I followed in my truck. We explored some cool mines around the area.

Woke up Sunday morning to this

Thanks Russell! My kids loved it when I bought it home that way.

My trail fix halfway up Carnage, right before the V-notch. Glad it happened before the notch than after

Gotta love bailing wire & duct tape
