Roundup '99
Slick 50 Trail
When Sunday came around
we headed out for a trail and realized that the TJ had some problems
that needed to be worked out, mainly due to taking on too much mud the
day before. We ended up spending the better part of the day cleaning
and rebuilding the brakes, fixing a loose steering system, and
rebuilding a loose hub.
We decided to take it
easy for the rest of the day and hit the trails one last time on
Monday. Since most attendees had already headed out for home, we
headed out in our little pack of three rigs. Todd, Pat, and I headed
out to a trail about 10 miles outside of town. We have no idea what
the trail's name is, so because of the abundance of mud and rain, we
called it the Slick 50 Trail.

The
trailhead was along a railroad access road.
|
It
wasn't long before I realized this was going to be a slick trail.
|
|
Even
at ten pounds, our BFG's didn't always grab like we wanted them
to.
|
The
entire trail was non-stop mud and rain.

Todd
Rosser led us in his '79 CJ-7.
|
Todd's
Jeep stayed clean for a while.

|
Hard-angled
turns were very tricky in the slick mud.
|
Mud
mud mud!
|
|
Plenty
of caked-in mud just never seemed to leave the treads.
|
It
took a good speedy bump to get over this little tree, as it was
slick as oil!
