It's still a hike to get home after the run on Sunday. I'm old and fat, need all the rest I can get Sunday afternoon to face the grind that starts again Monday morning. Twenty years ago sleep was for when you die...apparently I'm closer to death because I need it now!

Thanks for the 2m freq, I'll monitor it for traffic while SCCX is out doing our trail cleanup on 2n02.

Look what the nice man in the brown truck just left at my house:
Brown Santa dropped off a very similar box for me yesterday. Mine is a UV-82HP in blue.
The meet up is at 0900 but Pappy and Harriet's isn't open for breakfast. Anyone know of a good spot in Yucca or close by? Pre-meet for breakfast?
Thanks Brett, we had a great time. It was nice to finally get a chance to test out all the wiz-bang electronic goodies on my 4Runner. Everything worked well and I really appreciate you and Jonathan (out the window) spotting to be sure everyone got through all the obstacles safely. Below are a few photos from the trip.
Great pics so far gang, thanks for taking them. I expect and hope to see more. I know Jacki took pics also. I took a little bit of GoPro and Drone footage but was mostly busy leading and navigating so didnt have much time for that myself.
We ended up taking Burns Canyon with a jaunt off Heartbreak skipping the Sluice and looping back to Burns which we then left to take Smarts Ranch Road back to the hightway, once at the highway the group decided they wanted more so I took them through Jacoby Canyon to Holcomb and dropped down Van Drusen into Big Bear where we completed the trip. It was roughly 35 miles off road.
Both Heartbreak and Jacoby did not disappoint. I believe there was learning involved for some and fun had by all. No trail damage was had and as promised all vehicles were brought home in one piece!

Thanks again for leading. I'm looking forward to Jacki's pics since she was the only one that brought a decent camera.
