8) Time is just a blurr these days. I thought the trial was this past weekend. I'm off to Winterpeg for a conference this weekend. Won't be home until late Sunday night. I'm sure someone will take piccies and write up a report.

hmmmm
For all those planing on attending the trials day on sunday I highly recomend Gum Boots as the area is muddy and sticky in a few spots
Also those entering and those spectating I would highly recommend not entering areas taped off or notified not to enter in vehicles or foot as those areas are big sink holes that you may not come out so please listen to the marshalls and obey the taped of areas and the day will go smoothly and lots of fun.

PS trust me on the sink holes as we had a couple of trucks today buried up past the bottoms of the doors, not fun to get out.

Can I reiterate...
BRING GUM BOOTS!!!! :D OR HIP WADERS!!!! :lol:
And, where there is flag tape cordoning off an area, it really means it. We were up there today setting up and some of the mud holes have no bottom. They guy who owns the place got a high-hoe stuck in there this week that they thought was going to disappear. So we taped off the really bad areas, and you really do need to respect the tape!
Here's a few pics to help you whet your appetite:

Gerry dumps his Jeep on its side. Nice soft gooey landing, though.

Dave tries the same thing with his Rover but goes over in the other direction.

32,000 lb tug for Shawn.
We were able to make the path a wee bit civilized for the rest of you, though...
I'll post the rules we're going to run by in a few minutes and also email them out to all competitors.
See you tomorrow. Dave
