UNF trail run pictures (on and off topic)

Hey Nathan, On Sunday you passed a group of Jeeps heading towards Rocky Mount. The Black YJ with the Krawlers was me. My buddy and I (JimG on this group) were commenting on the machines you guys were driving. In our group we had two white TJ's, a blue CJ, a Blue Willy's with Krawlers, and my black YJ. Small world huh!

Looks like fun. I know what you mean about pictures not doing the slopes justice. I've been in spots before that were pretty crazy, where I was this --->

Hi Nathan,

We saw you right at your camp I think (near Rocky Mount). I wish I knew that was you! I saw the pictures of your Rhino last week when it was still on the trailer. Cool looking unit! It would have been a pleasure to have met you! Maybe next time!

dude, my brother and i were commenting on your black yj! did you happen to try going up to the rock garden while it was wet? my rubi just was not going up it while wet.

that blue willys really caught my attention, but i really throught it was running boggers. i do remember your group....in fact i nodded at you as you rode past.

for sure! maybe next time ill follow along (or try anyway, those jeeps looked well built).

ha......pretty much how it works!

same here jim. ill definately post when im heading up next time, maybe we can all meet up for a ramjw uwharrie jamboree.

Anyone ever make "rec.autos.makers.jeep+willys" stickers?I think I may paint "rec.jeep" on my bumpers, my rig looks like a wreck.

We came up Daniels and then Rocky Mount all when wet. The rock garden was good and gooey, but no major problems. The Daniels rock garden was GREAT. It's always a blast, wet or dry. You're right about the rain making URE a fantastic place to be. Dry is good, but rainy is awesome.

I have done the same thing. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to take a picture so that the photo makes the hill look as steep as it really was?

I've taken pictures of my Jeep on hills so steep, I literally could not walk up them on 2 feet. Had to use my hands and almost crawl up the hill, but on the photos, the hills don't look that steep.
