I did not get alot of pictures. Tried to snap what I could when we stopped. Was an awesome trip!

Excellent pic guys!
What I want to know is who spotted Zims drivers fender into the rocks!?
I didn't spot him into the rock, but I watched him drive into it. Lol
It was a little tight.
My mirrors were above it but the fender flares almost touched.
I think i enjoyed that trail the most.
Yeah that was actually pretty fun. Thinking we should add that to the cycle
Anyone get any video of my rig coming up hell's gate by chance?
Maybe @Desert_K5 he was standing right behind me
I have been meaning to ask the same thing. I was in my new rig and it was the first time doing the gate.

Story time
Upon the start of the morning Saturday, Toyota Kurt (AKA @Spork929 ) already flush with disappointment for fighting the charging system, he missed first call for the Golden Spike trail run. With no other options that day to run except Chicken Corners, Kurt and Dad Spork loaded the Yota that identifies as a square body, and hustled to the end of the road leading to the Gold Bar trailhead and unloaded. From here, he would be able to run the trail as Crack n Back and meet up with the main group
Hustling as fast as 83 horsepower would hustle, they blitzed at the speed of a cactus up the long and dusty road towards the start of Gold Bar. But lo and behold, the Yota was not on a NASCAR run, and failed to turn left halfway down that dusty road, leading the Sporks into sure death
From the Poison Spider side, the main group made their way steadily, lead by Sir GalaChad the Noble. Long and dusty was their journey through the Forbidden Trifecta desert. For their great cause was to rescue any lost souls they might encounter. Thirsty and tired, they happened upon a mystical Yeti abandoned on the trail. Being Sir GalaChad the Noble, he immediately counseled with the other knights of the brown table. They could not take possession of the great artifact, for they were not worthy. They however were equipped with many offroad stickers. Hence Sir Fred, Sir GalaChad, and Sir Javier left the cooler molested, neigh, camouflaged and it left below the only tree on the trail. Upon their way they continued, spreading the gospel of the great lost artifact

Due to the fact Kurt could make no left turn, he had sealed his fate to wander the desert with Father Spork to their doom. For not making the left turn meant no left turn would be in their future, as they headed up Rusty Nail alone. Fumbling and struggling with the angry rocks, Low-Low was utilized at each rock, slowly pecking their way into more doom and perilous trail. The travels were troubling and worrisome for Father Spork, causing him great anguish and consternation. Their fate was sealed at the No Left Turn obstacle, they might die. Wandering the desert on foot, Kurt begged and pleaded to the bedouin SxS riders “Please spotteth me off the terrible rock” Reluctantly the bedouins gave bad advice and observed as Father Spork begged for mercy.
Still slowly making his way though the desert, thirsty, hot, lost and scared, Kurt pleaded with the Moab gods to deliver him from his situation. He continued to travel far. And farther. Then, upon the horizon came a knight, no a Saint. Sir Javier had rescued the vagabond Sporks, and was elevated to sainthood, St Javier. Father Spork, tired and thirsty, took the magic elixir offered by St Javier, taking several quick tugs from the magic Jack flask. St Javier then followed the Sporks, still using Low-Low at the

That is some seriously good story telling. You did not however get enough references from junior spork about how st Javier saved them and led them from the shadows of death in the desert.
