13 4x4'a showed up on a nice day, Sunny and 50 degree clear skies. Roads were nice as recent rains kept the dust down. Explored Riley Loop backwards. Lunch at Fall Springs. Two track and arroyos. Jack Nutter got stuck in a big hole and needed straps and winch to get out, No damage. Cliff's rear bumper failed and his spare tire needed to be removed and Denis had to bring it back home in his truck. Everyone found play areas to do some rock crawling.
A great day. Back after dark, though.
