Jeff,

Very cool, those things are amazing. I like the aerial shot of the switchbacks. Either I missed him or he was off on some trail somewhere instead of reporting, but it appears that the CJ2A Roaming Reporter has been replaced by a roaming flying machine reporter. Smile

Looks like you all had a wonderful time!

That pick of you and Bam-Bam up on the rocks was pretty sweet.

This Bam Bam abuse is getting out of hand.

Where's the video of the actual incident?

Mike and Nancy --

Thank you again for hosting everyone at the FCT this year. I had a great time for my first tour and hope to be able to return for many more to come. Your hospitality is unparalleled and I really appreciate the help and expertise from everyone who attended. Just wanted to include a shot that I took from the top of the ghost town on the way up to Aspen Ridge with Mike's group.

We are home safe and sound.

Thank you Nancy and Mike for your hospitality, generosity, and the use of your property.

It's the people that make trips like these very memorable.

Oh, and the scenery is pretty awesome as well.

..... I made it home yesterday morning in time for church. What a gr8 adventure! Since the new format, I have had as much fun the last two years as I had my very first year. Spending the night up on Mt. Princeton was fun and exciting. I loved the drive back down in the morning. I have driven Princeton several times over the last 8 years, but at 7:00 in the morning, it is a different mountain.

The Thursday loop was my favorite trail of the week. We left at 8:00 am and didn't get back till 8:00 PM. Tincup Pass to Tincup, then Napoleon Pass to Pitkin, then Hancock Pass back to St. Elmo. I know we crossed the continental divide at least twice.

Missed a few regulars but saw some new faces.

Thanks to Ron and Amy for leading the Qwaaazy 8's on several adventure trails!

Thanks to Fuzz for for doing a gr8 job of spotting BAM BAM and me, and Brian for shooting the footage.... and thanks to the Evans family for adopting me through baptism at Grizzly Lake!

Thanks to Arick for traveling with me, wheeling with me, and being my wingman.

Thanks to Bruce for serving as trail boss and everyone who helped Mike and Nancy to prepare for last week.

Finally, thanks to Mike and Nancy for opening up their place to me, for bandaging me up when I tripped into their boat in the dark Embarrassed

, for morning coffee and conversation, and for being my best friends! Hug

.... the jeep season is winding down. Soon winter will be here and the memories will start pouring in my mind. What a gr8 group of friends I have! Let's always stay close!

"We do what we can, and we try what we can't"

I'm still on my way home so I can't post pictures yet, but I saw a spare tire cover on the way home that said it all.

It was a diagram of a Jeep, and it simply said something like, "Because your children won't remember 28.5 mpg"

These Jeeps are built to provide memories, adventures, and experiences.

Thanks for all 3 Mike and Nancy...
