Finally went through the pictures from the Jamboree! Unfortunately I wasn't able to take as many pictures as I would have liked to (I generally have someone with me to take them, but this time, it was only me), but I still managed to get a few cool shots.

I've got a few more on my Flickr that I didn't post on this page, so be sure to check those out!

Friday
On Friday, we ran Iron Chest.

Had a pretty big group at the beginning, only to get bigger...




@TBuzz lighting the way



A little up the trail we ran into a large group of Jeeps (as All-4-Fun was happening at the same time), causing a bit of a traffic jam and a problem for everyone. The trail is too narrow for anyone to pass, and has very few pull-outs, yet is open for 2-way traffic. Luckily we met them at a small road, meaning that we were able to fit the first 7 or so vehicles of our group up it. However, this meant that the remaining rigs behind us, as well as any others, had to turn around and head down.

The remaining group to run and finish Iron Chest would be myself, @Dirtco , @, @Fishwerks , @NateMob , @, and @EatonKyleH .

About 2 hours later, the trail was finally clear for us to back down this narrow road and get going again. Things got a little messy when @ had the edge start to give way and a tire fall off the edge. After winching him to a tree, we got him, along with everyone else, safely off the road.




Group shot at the top!









The trail itself was tons of fun, filled with lots of challenging rocks around every corner, but the trail traffic was a mess.

Saturday
On Saturday we changed plans multiple times, but all worked out.

Entire group queuing up for a run



After everyone started splitting off to go fishing, run others trails, etc., it ended up being myself, @TCMach , @NateMob , @, and @EatonKyleH .

We first ran Tomichi Pass, then Hancock Pass, and lastly headed to Chinaman Gultch! This trail was absolutely great. I'm glad we had a small group and ran it later in the day, as it went much faster than expected. I struggled a tad bit on some sections without a locker, and even had to get winched at one point.







Every wheeling trip I go on, a locker gets moved up farther in the priority list..

aaand that's all! I had a blast and will definitely be returning next year!
