Nice pics john! I sure wish we would have got some pics of Thompson hill. That was a bit brutal. I'm ready for an easy trail after that marathon of crawling, but the experience of that trail is surely worth it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />

In a past life, you were leading conestoga wagons up the Oregon Trail! I wish I had a wooden wagon and a horse to pull it, it would be a good trail rig. Very impressive report.

the dusy ershim trail is about 40 miles east of fresno.
i did it once and i dont think i wanna do it again. that thing is only 33 miles but it beats you up the entire time.
we did it around 2000. a fellow club member did the rubicon a few months later and still says dusy is tougher since it's a non stop rocks. even on a flat sections.
actually, maybe i'll do it again when i can tow it in and like 33" tires or bigger. i ran it with brand new 32" and i had to winch the last portion of thompson...
