October 19 Trail ride report

We had six DeJA Jeeps in the group. Shorebird (me) guiding, Glen (cj8), Jay (slowpoke), Keith (stomper), Andy (Andydjk), and Tim (Ranger ?),sorry Tim . This was Andy and his JK's first ride, so we gave him the the standard DeJA 101. We started out on 1a to break Andy in a little before hitting trail 2 (blue), We picked up the blue section of trail 4 to C at Yellow jacket and then ran the blue CV trail. After CV we ran trail O then broke for lunch at the entrance/exit of trail 8. Time to head south. We ran trail 25 (Green), then trail 22 (Blue/black = Purple), skirted Lake Christy and and headed for Camel Back and Snake Bite. Jay and I ran Camel Back and as Tim was running it got hung up on a rock which tweeked his tie rod. Andy got to see a minor recovery as Glen pulled him clear of the rock. Upon inspection of the damage Keith decided to do a rough toe in adjustment and call it a day for the father-son team. We all headed back toward the registration area the remaining four planning to hit a few more trails and the comp area. On the way glen's CJ8 broke a spring pack centering bolt (I had one) which necessitated a trail repair. When complete it was time for us to call it a day. Air up, BS, and head home. BTW Andy plans to do it again, I guess we all did a good job with our DeJA 101!

Thanks for posting the pics! Did you have any problems on the drive home?
