Rubicon 2015...

[SuperBuickGuy]

Unless you're in an Ultra 4 Buggy - you can't get bored.

Every obstacle has several lines. If you are looking at them with fresh eyes, it's a whole different story. I'm bummed I couldn't get the time off, but will make sure he's set up for success. We have many eyes and ears on the trail, he'll be fine. I will let Mid Trail Staff know he's on the trail. If something happens, I doubt he'll wait for more than an hour before help arrives

I was complimenting him on how well-prepared his rig is.... not dissing on the Rubicon, somewhere in my stack of pictures I have a picture of how they removed a buggy that the rubicon ate up (on a flatbed truck).

However, as you've notified the first responders - I'm thinking you're thinking he's going to need lots of help; have you notified the National Guard as well? it does take time to warm up the choppers

I'm jealous, the Rubicon is on my list. I wish I were closer. One of these years I'll make it. Have fun!

Choppers ETA is 15 minutes - both CHP and Lifeflight - if the JJUSA bird is around ETA is 2 minutes.

The only help he will need is if he or someone in his group breaks something not repairable - like a Serge scenario.

The Rubicon has eaten many vehicles and sadly more than a few lives. We started the whole repeater program in 2006 just for that reason.

His rig will have no problem - but stuff happens out there.

Mid trail staff are folks who patrol for many reasons, mostly to educate and monitor. Not really "first responders" per se, but a couple of wise old dudes who can pretty much fix anything, and know how to get a hold of me

I'm part of these folks https://www.facebook.com/scvsar?fref=ts

and it's funny but true, I've done more rescues outside of call-outs then I have while on call-outs. That said, if I weren't part of SAR I probably wouldn't keep up on the training like I do now... it's good training to have even if you don't participate in SAR.

Well Chis made it and I loved meeting Nick. I think I like him better than Chris Our H3's finally met, and they loved each other. Aren't they cute !?

 

[Zach]

Love at first sight? For the 3's that is. And yeah! Nick is the quiet one. Chris? Well, you know Bebe

 

[bebe]

Nick, quiet? He was very chatty and adorable. All of them are sweethearts. I'll be moitoring the 146.805 to keep track - they know how to get a hold of me

FYI they are going to meet us at Fordyce Friday night - then we wheel!

Only wheeled with Nick once and that was LCC, he was very quiet. Chris, on the other hand never stfu! Glad you will be monitoring them. After all, you have the connections up there. Don't need another episode like the last one

Hey that was awsome

 

[3Hummers]

Nick wasn't all that quiet in Moab. You can tell that those two are brothers...or sisters, by the way they squabble.
rubicon and Fordyce, quite the trip.

It was quite the comedy routine when they were trying to get organized - who was taking what ice chest LOL

No news is good news, so it must be going well!!

 

[Ryan212]

That is a pretty cool setup keeping the IFS, lots of work, but I really like the low center of gravity on the build.

 

[bebe]

Thanks,

Welp - I've had another clear day of monitoring the 805. No drama. They will be on their way out tomorrow with a plan to meet them at Fordyce late afternoon.

I can't wait to hear the stories. The good thing is Fordyce has 5 bars, so I'll make sure they post up pronto! (After I feed them of course !!)

 

[Bigunit]

Great support Bebe. Thanks for talking care of our own.

 

[Fish]

Cool. Feed em good!

 

[Zach]

Awesome job Bebe! Damn! Now I'm hungry remembering the cooking in Moab.

Am sure I will here from Chris once he gets service.

 

[3Hummers]

I'm thinking ugly beans..........

 

[06 H3]

We're alive!!!! Most badass awesome trail!!!! We could of stayed 3 days but pushed through and just got off the trail. Squeaky did great. Many stories pictures and videos to come.

This morning we were packing up camp and heard some motors. Run 100 yards down a land cruiser was flopped on its side. My brother saw it live, my buddy and I didn't all were ok and we helped em flop it back over

 

[speedy]

:woot:

 

[LagunaH1]

Great to hear

One of these years I'll want to head up that way and see what the '97 can do on that trail

 

[scoreh3]

Chris , we can't wait to see your pics and hear more, keep having fun and be safe.
