A 30 cal ammo can placed to commemorate a most interesting and
unusual, we hope, eventTeam Red Rubicon (TRR) and two interlopers, me in a Toyota Tundra
and JPIT in a not red Rubicon, gathered for the day to pre run the
moderate route for the upcoming Mountain Fiesta and 4x4 Caching
Adventure. Things had been a little tame with the exception of a
couple of short hauls over some not to awful rocks prior to the
lunch break we took at a spot overlooking beautiful Mirror Lake. I
guess all this "tameness" was just too much for one of the diehard
TRR members so, following lunch, she decided to take an alternate
route across the inlet stream to the lake. Now when the lake is
low, this appears to be a good way to go. But the lake wasn't low.
What proceeded to happen is documented in pictures and a few choice
comments gathered at the time of the event.
Let's do something off the wall, shall we? That keychain I just got
said "Girls Rule" didn't it?
Speed looks good with an impressive bow wave. Course heading
appears right on target
Uh oh! Do I hear a band playing "Nearer My God To Thee"
Is that Rocketman getting an atomic wedgie?
This is the captain, "Blow All Ballast"
Let's get this thing back to dry dock for repairs!
Where did you say the drain plugs were?
