Title: Wallington
Post by: Dragon on September 08, 2008, 11:20:02 AM

Anyone else make it to this yesterday?

I finally got my Jeep dirty.  I can link to pics if people want...didn\'t want to flood the forum first.  :)

This is my neighbor\'s Jeep on one of the \"dry\" areas between the S-curve and the far side deep bog.

Neighbor again
(http://www.frontiernet.net/~blkbear/Bog/DCP_1751.JPG)

Me, lined up for the same section he was just on
(http://www.frontiernet.net/~blkbear/Bog/DCP_1752.JPG)

Me getting \"down & dirty\" int he S-curve.  The mud was about a foot-and-a-half deep through there
(http://www.frontiernet.net/~blkbear/Bog/DCP_1753.JPG)

At the end of the S-curve was a small hill, then another short mud pit
(http://www.frontiernet.net/~blkbear/Bog/DCP_1754.JPG)

On the near side, I avoided the truck-swallowing bog, but managed to hit the hill at the end.

My neighbor again (looks like he\'s dragging half the field with him)
(http://www.frontiernet.net/~blkbear/Bog/DCP_1756.JPG)

Neighbor again.  The magic smoke didn\'t leak out, that\'s just the result of soupy mud + hot exhaust.
(http://www.frontiernet.net/~blkbear/Bog/DCP_1757.JPG)

The end result of my afternoon.  Not bad for a first time.

There was a truck in that photo?  Where?

I\'ve gotten the bronco muddy there a couple times.  Kinda fun, big mess to cleanup.  Wear waterproof boots.
