Okay, granted, by the time Ivan reached the Northeast it was diminished to just a bad storm. Nevertheless, BKLYNH2, Dan, Oldhiker, Spike and Zing headed out undeterred to the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania for a little adventure this past weekend. We camped the weekend and, all told, had about 5 inches of rain, lots of beer, awesome steaks (compliments of Dan) and a kick-ass time wheeling at Paragon.
Here's the H2 compound (after the storm passed through).

Here's looking down at BKLYNH2 from the top. We figure the storm cut this gully that previous night. You should have seen the water still gushing through here hours after the rain stopped.

I don't know what I enjoyed more, all the water and washed out trails, or the fact that we had the whole park to ourselves!

We had a crazy nite Friday. Standing around the fire we couldn't hear each other talk the rain & wind was so loud. At about 4am the wind turned into a freight train. We all held onto our tent poles from the inside to keep them on the ground. In the morning we had all 5 tents still standing and everyone was dry. What a night! Extreme camping!!
Saturday was awesome for offroading.

Looks like fun. The 101 area is always better after a good rain  (Sorry Area 51 though I've never heard it called that before). Nice and soupy. Bet it was fun cleaining the trucks afterwards, especially the engine bay. I have Paragon "mud" that even a power washer will never get off. All good though.
I know I skipped out on the last invite but darn, wish I had known. Looked like a good time. |

Looks like fun.  I wish you guys would have invited me this time. That's ok, I see the way you guys are. Ditching me like that.  
Dan, I really like your grey bra. 
Can I go next time? How about LATE next month or EARLY Nov.? Better yet, how about right after I get my truck back?
