On an honest side-note, we did have a bit of a problem. An H1 encountered a broken rear A-arm on one of the very first obstacles...big-time bummer!!!
Dana and his lovely wife Wendy just bought this incredible rig and were taking it out for the first time. One of the wheels got a bit of air and...well....you know. They are the nicest couple and we all wish them a quick recovery and hopefully will join us soon!
Here is the hill where it happened (shown with an H1 coming down it)l The very top has a HUGE rut where one of his tires was way up in the air and we figure the TT4 grabbed it and tore the rear apart.

We got hassled by "The Man"...where was Heehaw when we needed him? Actually...the forest ranger was looking for a couple of bears that apparently swiped some picnic baskets...we couldn't help him...

BUT....he did get offroad. The tires left the road when the tow-truck hauled it up!

HUMMER....#1
Please notice 2 things: That's me wearing the official H2 Club shirt (excellent quality, great feel)...and that's also me weighing about 25 pounds LESS then when I first started the club.
Oh yeah...and MAC....new shorts too!

We played around these rocks and then moved back into the hills. At one point we had to go through a farmers property (just barely) and we moved with stealth graceness....
We then came to the big climb....Craigs inclinometer almost got buried into the 45-degrees mark!!!
Be sure to check out the red Hummer at the very very very top of the hill climb....even pics can't steal the steepness of this climb. It was a lot steeper then the pics shows you!
As Ole Yellr pointed out: just behind us was the freeway.....you could actually see a big traffic slow-down (from 70mph to maybe 30mph) and everybody slowing down big-time to watch our Hummer-pack work our way up this nasty hill.
