got back a day early; what a trip!

1. caravan

2. good thing we were in jeeps loaded with camp gear food and plently of water.

3. camp gear: thanks George and Diane for finding us THE ABSOLUTE BEST camp spot! featuring fun rocks to climb within feet of our cave tent! moose was right at home

4. took a different route home "camino del este" then into welton & I-8. Mason spotted this tank on the side of the trail about 3/4's of the way through este.

1. camp fire w/ most of the crew

2. we found this aluminum piece of wreckage just off the side of camino del este. it appeared to be a piece of a tail wing or landing gear from a plane.

3. what do you think it was? definitely made of aluminum with plenty of rivets.

Since it has a screw, it could be a leading edge slat off a wing ....

so did you guys have to take an alternate route do to the moon mud, or did you go right through it?

Hey Scott, Mike & Kris, hope you don't mind I moved your posts to the trip report & photos to get the thread started.

 

Thanks to everyone who participated in this trip for making it a great one. I will put up a trip report as soon as I can get one put together, in the mean time post your pictures to this thread.
