Well... fun it was From left to right are: Grant (91 4runner 31's... not the '84 p/u with the 350 and a 4spd vette tranny cuz it was stolen), Alice, Ira, and kids (92 4Runner, 35's -> wonderland) and me (87 4Runner, stock) I need more clearance, but it's a start Play in the mud they said... I was ok here, but then... I almost crested, just a little more speed... next attempt: The little more speed got me a lot more stuck Ira decided to get accustomed to the mud before pullin me out... and he told me to stay away from the black stuff... That looks a little black to me and here's where we ended up, I'm behind the camera... so he almost got turned around... but the lack of a locker in the rear stopped that pretty quick We got out of that mess.. and after cruising for a while, the road turned up and icy (with snow falling hard), and I got stuck again... this is becoming redundant Then a water flow... and I was thinking I'd be ok Denied... hung up on a giant piece of ice There's the trip in a nutshell... fun, and a learning experience for me too... I ended up at the Chute lake Lodge instead of Kelowna at first... and I must admit that I was scared... the people, although nice, were a little different...

You missed that part... when I went the wrong way, the people running the Chute Lake Cabin were real hardcore hillbillies... nice enough people for sure, but they kinda put me on edge... heh Fun times Gord
