Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
:) On the road right now headed north to Redding to stay overnight. And then home! Sorry, no pics to load yet. We're somewhere on I-5 in California. Had a blast! Thanks to all the great spotters and rock stackers! :jump:

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
Just checked, my buddy's camera uses compact flash, and I only have an SD slot on the laptop...too bad! :) I'm sure someone else will be posting soon, considering I'll probably be one of the last to get home....Of course I won't be traveling as far as Shaggy or OldHiker! But, again we had a great time! :perfect10s:

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
We didn't end up taking the youngest, but I had the 2yo and 5yo, as well as my buddy and his 4yo. They did great, just watched movies and snacked... :)

Here's the first batch of the pictures I have. I wish I'd taken more of the "action shots", but I was usually busy stacking or spotting or just too friggin' tired.
Gatekeeper. |

The rig on the right is my buddy's incredible rock rig. He drove bacvk from Spider to Loon in 32 minutes.:perfect10s:
The red rig crapped out an input shaft in the Little Sluice at about midnight on Friday. I almost broke my elbow when I rode shotgun through the Box in my buddy's rig. |

Same spot, Finally's rig. The challenge is to get your passenger side front tire up the wall high enough to keep your driver's door off the knife edge that sticks out. There's plenty of paint and metal on that rock.

Doc on a much higher line, but with more tippy action. Had to back up and realign himself.

The Squeeze part of Walker. This was before the massive stacking project took place. I had maybe a 1/4" squeeze here. It brought the suck.

Re: Rubicon Run - 2006!!!
Just a side note, the Gatekeeper is the first obstacle that you come to at the start. If you cannot get through this, turn back. After several hours we were all through.
Now the fun begins. |
