Well, running Jeep, but it's only a 2wd Comanche....looks like it will probably be summer before I get out with you guys again.  :(

If it was summer, then that would be fine to get to the falls. I'm sure a two wheel drive pickup would make it all the way, if it had clearance, 31's and maybe a rear locker
I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out.

That’s great Steve! Good start to the New Year! I am coming with Nolan and two adult passenger, visiting from Ontario. Thought I would show them the real Alberta. I have to be home in good time as we are having a 6th birthday party for Nolan that night. See you for breakfast.

Well, count me out, and let's count on me getting a 4w-drivetrain into her for the next open run.   :-[ Good rear bumper, plastic front, no tow hooks, no CB installed yet, heater core needs purged....yeah, I'm thinking she's a little under "ready" for a run.  ;D

My jeep is broke. Front driveshaft. I was going to do the trail in 2wd but someone reminded me of the last time I tried that and it was summertime ::)
So I will not be leading, but will be riding shotgun.
See everyone for breaky in the morning
Have a Happy New Years eve. But not too happy, wheeling hungover is no fun ;D

I just went out there on sat. dec. 29th in my basically stock tj, and my brother took my pops stock Tacoma out. we went out to margaret lake, cleaned up all the garbage that was left from who ever was ice fishing. Had to cut a couple of fallen trees up to clear the path.
We continued down the cutline from margaret lake after stoping to eat, my bro got stuck after hitting where the small creek had overflown and iced over.. took a while to get him out.. and by that time it was getting dark. we turned around and tryed going back up that hill... I had to gun it in 2nd gear 4L, with tires turning everywhich direction to make it back up. The Taco didnt, however, make it up... so I had to meet him half way and tow him back up.. close one.. thought we might be camping that night.
I should have posted this b4 the run just 4 a heads up of the frozen trail.

also, i am sorry to hear of Shaun's(?) misshap. i hope he gets well soon and that his wife will continue to let him out to play!  ;)
