    Looks like new shoes on the elephant - like to see it from the side.

    Such an amazing day with great people !!!
    All the water crossings ......... FUN FUN !!!
    The most challenging trail I've been on to date
    Was really kinda hoping to see the plane crash site but what we did see was well worth all the effort
    The Elephant seemed to do very well, a few belly hits but she pulled right through
    Thank you to Matt for planing this run and great to have met Heather, husband Chris and I hope I get his name right, the guy in the Dozer, Bob !!!!!
    Thanks to Heather for taking photos and films, hope to see them soon!!!!!!

    Today was so perfect!!! Thanks Matt for organizing, and SO nice meeting Matt and Phillip! I love The Elephant, Phillip. Very nice rig. Congrats on the TJR, too, Matt, what a beauty! Everyone did great; smooth like butter; made for a super, super fun and relaxing run. I only wish I could've hiked more - but the first part of the morning was too cold to get away from the butt warmers in the Jeep. It was hilarious that we brought Bob, and he already knew Matt (hey - surprise!), plus the guy that pulled up after we were ready to head out. Apparently, Bob knows everyone.

    Phillip, it's hard to believe that this is the most challenging trail you've done to date - your finesse was that of someone who's done a lot trickier trails - great driving and line picking.

    I'm going to try a link to share my Dropbox folder - I hope this works. There's over 100 photos (a lot of repetitive/similar photos) but I don't have the time until way later (if ever) to thin them out. There's one video in there - got everyone at the water crossing, woot! The water was so low, it was great for posing in the middle for pictures. The sound the rigs made coming through the ice chunks was pretty cool.

    Link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/01jz8uwro...EHRkEZRja?dl=0 (Please let me know if you can actually see anything?!)

    Thank you again for a great day!

    WOW, 402 pictures. THANKS HEATHER, I'm downloading my favorites to my iPhone!

    Had a blast.

    Phillip, the plane crash is on a different route called T33-A Plane Crash 4x4 trail. It's very close to the trails we did, but it is definitely more challenging. It's where I did most of the damage on my RAM. However I have to second Heather's observation on how skilled and smooth your driving skills are. You could probably do T33 without doing as much damage as I did because your a better driver
