Default Pictures from Belle and Forrest Hill Park Jan 2014

Here are some pictures from a fun but cold day out scaling! Maiden voyage for the FJ40 and D90.



Love the water drop ring in the bottom corner of this one



Perspective























Can't wait to go back!

We had so much fun last weekend, we went back this weekend too. It was a cold, cold Saturday, but the wheeling was superb. So good in fact, that we decided to do it again on Sunday.

Enjoy!

Saturday:



Water was down some, but the water level was really irrelevant because it was all ice. There were lines and areas that were accessible that I have never had to opportunity or courage to try before. What would normally be a total lose of your rig if it falls off the ledge was now just a drop onto the ice.

It was scale Moab in the winter time. Definitely a once in a year kind of deal.













And Sunday, after a little wrenching, good ol' fabrication, some beer and a couple hours of sleep. Forrest Hill park first.







Then back to Belle















All for a total of 223 pictures taken, 14 hours of scale driving, 7 hours of real driving, 1 stripped servo gear and one broken axle housing.

T'was an awesome weekend of nothing but scaling. We need more people to come out with us though!!!

Some more/different pics will be posted in the build threads for the two rigs!

Looks like a blast! With all the cold weather lately you should be able to enjoy icey Belle a few more times this winter.

I am getting closer to having a rig to join you with, build a comp rig so we can enjoy each others side of the hobby.

It was!!! There should still be ice in some places this upcoming weekend, but it was already starting to melt and break away yesterday afternoon.

Maybe sometime I could drive a backup rig of yours or something, just to get a feel for the comp thing and see if the bug bites?

Due to the weather, I didn't take as many pics as usual however I still ended up with just about the normal amount of "good" ones. Probably because of how damn good that Jeep looked.

Here we go.





Too much traction!
















And then the big boys came out to play








I've now reached 98% of my photobucket capacity, so soak these up because there aren't going to be many pics from me next weekend!
