Friday started out routinely. Filled up with a big breakfast and waited with our trail group for the driver’s
meeting. Pulled out at 9AM with the help of Pittsfield's finest. A few minutes later we were airing down in a pasture
on Murphy's Law. The day could not have been nicer. Sunny and cool with all the rain behind us. After experiencing
a sonic boom we hit the trails. The recent rains had left the trails real muddy. Made for a lot of fun. Later in
the morning we came upon Carburetor Hill. We were going to just drive up and take a look but some of the bigger Jeeps
wanted a go at it. Well, Randy got his Grand Cherokee down into what looked like an impossible to escape ravine.
You heard more then you saw until all of a sudden he got the front end around the narrow corner. He kept hammering
at it until he emerged through the trees and up to with in 50 feet of beating the hill. With his Jeep on it's side
and belching antifreeze, he gave up to save his Jeep. Made it 90% of the way through. Damn good I thought!
