Well it sure came around quick this year. Seems like I was just post'n up the 2012 trip. This year the toyhauler that we stay in was wide open so I asked Steve (70_Steve) and buddy Tim to come along. I was going to pull my Bronco out with the Superduty, with Steve and Tim following in their rigs. A week out from the trip my 7.3 PS lost the front main seal. We got it fixed the day before we left so all was good. We staged at my house at 4pm on Thursday.
All loaded up and ready to go
The rest of the crew showed up
For the most part it was an uneventful trip to Blythe CA for refuel, then a roley poley trip to the dunes
This would be Steve and Tim's first time to the dunes. As with previous years as we arrived to camp everyone else had a head start on all the fun. Once unloaded we were asked to accompany the razors, rails, quads to Oldsmobile Hill for some evening festivities.
Being Steve and Tim's first time I asked if they wanted to ride with me. Tim hopped in but Steve wanted to feel the sand beneath his Bronco. So off we went.
This is us sitting on top of Oldsmobile Hill. Steve really enjoyed the power of his 351W and enjoyed the light duning on the way over.
Some people were having quite a bit of fun! ;D
You could tell by the sky and fair evening the weather was about to change...
We took a slightly different route back to camp. Steve was having a difficult time of it and ended up sliding off the path
Barely phased at this point
Here comes the rescue!
Trying to get a good tug on him without letting him rollover
Mission accomplished
All loaded up and ready to go
