Jeff, if you could get Trudy out West and take her on trail rides with us at the FCT or Ouray in the San Juans, then I'm sure she wouldn't mind the travel so much. Those places change your life.   My wife used to be like that, especially with camping, but she has come around , and now even enjoys it!

... well, ya never know. I'm glad she went with me to Badlands and I think that it has helped to show her how critically important it is for me to attend all these flat fender events around the country. It's a huge responsibility but I won't shrink from my duties.

Jeff, I think it's time to upgrade from the 240p camera!

Great video, I wish I was there. Where is the spot at the first 30 seconds of the video? I don't recall  it during my last visit.

Nick, it was a ditch off to the side of the main road out. Jeff and I stopped to give aid (if needed) to a 4 wheeler, that was stuck at the bottom. He finally backed up and out the way we went in.

Jeff,

Thanks for sharing, and that is awesome that your wife joined you. I always enjoy hitting the trails in a Jeep, but it makes it all that much more enjoyable having my family join me. My entire family is planning on joining in on the fun for FCT 2017. Hopefully Trudy will be able to attend that as well. Brian

The video is 1080p. YouTube downgraded it. I forgot how to get it to upload in HD.

I'm not sure. We drove through sand to get there. Honestly, we spent most of the day driving around lost

Sorry I didn’t get over to run with you guys. Looks like you had a good day, and I appreciated being able to see the video of your outing. Thanks for posting.

I went to Haspin last weekend. Charging system quit working, some fender damage, and diffs filled with water. Maybe if I reverse into a rock at Badlands... it would fix my fender. This trip may be a necessity.

Due to the weather this week and weekend, we are going to meet next weekend Nov 11. If anyone can’t make it next weekend and still wants to wheel this weekend, let me know please.

My grandson, Dylan, and his other paw paw, went to Badlands this weekend to warm the place up for the flatfenders next weekend:





Didn't get to spend my time on the jeep side but we can do that next weekend.
