it's ok to say Jeff...it IS miserable trekking that kind of stuff around for hours on end in the rain/bad weather. Looks like another great trip is on the books!

Found out today why my passenger side rear wheel stopped driving...
The axle shaft fractured at the flange.

Actually quite un-eventful. Was simply backing up on trail 20 black on the west property to help Jeff.
Nothing terribly difficult.
Heard a bang, :shock: just thought it was the Detroit unloading... Didn't find out till later when Dennis pointed out the rear tire wasn't digging. :angry-cussingblack:

Me thinks it was a defective shaft. Already e-mailed ECGS some pics.

northeat property.
We ran the upper and lower Tailsman, devils den, affliction (but only part as we had trouble finding the start of it.) 31, 35 a lot of roswell and much of the greens. the first few trails are worth the upcharge and Kyle pointed out some of what we missed so it would be worth another day visit in the future.

Image
Upper Tailsman IIRC
Image
Devils Den
Image
Image
Image
Assaulted was a bit like RockCreek on a ridgeline but was not as long a run where we jumped on.
Image
Image
Carnage on that day was limited to the OX cable for Dennis, my bolts on the rear bumper on the passenger side and Kurt had the bolts back out of his centering assembly on the SYE.
