Greg Sue led a stocker run up the Mamquam FSR, so I tagged along. We
ran a trail called
'Forest Lane'. I got the award for most damage..... 2 dents, 1 broken
fender flare,
shattered back up lamp, and a gashed sidewall.
Norm spots for Tony.
John makes it on his own.
What a view.
What a view.
Greg having lunch.
Will Warn give warranty on this?
Norm got himself into a predicament.
His bumper dug right in.
His bumper dug right in.
Helen stays in the truck where it is nice
and dry.
Greg tried to winch off a tree, but they
were all to thin.
Greg has to take the only way
(the difficult way) through.
Good thing for ARB's.
Doesn't look as deep as it really was.
John makes it through no problem.

Drum roll please.
Easy does it.
Waiting for the hitch to hit.
And we crawl right out.
Greg stacks a few rocks for Tony.
In he goes.
Easy does it.

Ed's turn.
Slow down!
John is first to go over the fallen tree.
We had to stack up rocks and small
branches to make a ramp.
Easy does it.
Not quite enough clearance.
We stack a bit more.
John slid off to the right while crossing
the fallen tree. He had about 1/4" of
clearance at this point.
No wonder it is called Forest Lane.
I think we need a winch.
The only winch on the trail.
A tug to the front, then to the rear and
John has some room again.
Greg winched off of a tree in front
of John.
Here we go again.
Here we go again.
A couple of guys pushed John off the tree.
Go, go , go!!!!
60 minutes later, Greg gets a turn.
Norm's turn.
Norm's turn.
No problem.
No problem.
No problem.
Good job, Norm.
My turn. I was worried about copying
John. The log was pretty slippery, and I
had the widest wheelbase.
Easy does it.
Ed spot's me.
Tony makes it over no problem.
Ed flies right over (tunes a blaring).
I sacraficed an auxillary back up lamp.....
The right rear fender.....
The left rear fender....
The right front fender flare....
And the left rear tire. Good thing for a
full size spare.
Bad picture, but kind of gives you and
idea of the size of the gash in the sidewall.
