Not sure where i got it from.  I think i just previous searched for Mclean Creek opening date.  And just looked back over it and it looks like it was last years opening date perhaps.

Hmm Maybe I'll be doing Mclean on Saturday and Waiparous on sunday then.  Could be a nice eventful weekend for me.

What a great time for my first time out :D

Got stuck at the very beginning, and with not having any tow hooks,.. my bumper cut my tow rope and cut my buddies tow strap. So he went to push me back so I can take a run,... he ended up getting hooked on my bnumper, so we just pulled 8wheels style,.. LOL

funny how it worked, but now I need new fender end caps,.. and to push out part of my grille,.. LOL

Overall for my first time out, I had a blast and my 'little jeep that could' kept up pretty good,.. but 28's just dont grip enough,.. I got hung up a few more times

Some of the hill i didn't think i was going to make it,.. it crawled up pretty good,.. I *heart* my jeep :D
