Va4wd Event at Gore, Apr 2015

By Ryan Gillespie

 

Trail cliff notes: We were supposed to be running trails from the 1-3 trail rating system, but due to the weather the week prior the easy trails were, well, not so easy.(sound familiar to the "spring" Rousch Creek run? ha). That being said, there were only two times that the delays were note worthy. The first was when a CJ(I think?) ran wide on turn and high centered itself on some logs, the driver wanted to use his come-along to remove the truck from said log, so that took some time.

The next was of course yours truley, although in my defense there was absolutely no easy way to get around this obstacle. Alan was able to winch me back up, and with some anti-rollover rigging attached to the B-pillar down the ledge I went. I'll post up the pictures and a quick video onto the facebook page for those that are interested. For the rest of the notes, we will have to talk Alan into posting up a recap as I couldn't tell you any of the trail names except for "moose"(which, coincidentally, Alan had to rescue me from as well...Alan, if you are reading this I owe you a case of beer minimum!).
