I'm headed out tomorrow with one other jeep (stock) but it's more of a leisurely picture taking run.  Might see you at breakfast tho... should be at smitty's around 9:30 or so.

well I am pretty stock, but I can still do pretty hard runs. all about the driver. anyway, my dads just takin his stock taco and my buddy is breaking in his new 08 chev w/ 6" lift & 35's.
but as well this will be more of a moderate run, have a fire, cook some dogs, take some pics. see it - drive it.

Was a pretty good day... didn't do anything tough.  Made it out to the falls, took a few pics... we were thinking of heading into Margaret lake but my buddy was running at's and is unlocked so when you mentioned ice we decided to just head on back out.

yea, ive never had a problem with that hill before.. but when we first got there I could see where others had failed about half way up.. I gave it 3 shots, increasing the speed and gear till the last time I hit @ 50km in 4th gear low... there seemed to be a solid sheet of ice about halfways up, tires would be spining and I would be going backwards down the hill again..  ::)

oh well. probably for the better anyway.
