I really have to thank Gavin for organizing this run and for everyone's help when I broke my DS. Can't say how extremely fun it was so I'll let the pictures do the talking. The hill sequence is interesting though - lot of dust when the Jeep went up; but not me!

Gavin (xperienced for SCCX): Black Gen 1
Carlos (Chad from SCCX): Yellow Gen 1
Chase: Dark Blue Jeep
Marty: Dark Blue Jeep

I didn't take any more after I broke my driveshaft but I sure someone will post pictures of me being towed off the hillside.

BTW Gavin; you're an AWESOME photographer

Great pictures Oz.  Too bad about the drive shaft.  Glad you made it home.

I have a D70S (Nikon) which I had for about 5 years. Pretty foolproof on auto with a lots of 'prosumer' options if you're really a skilled photographer like Frank and Paul. Zoe took half of those shots - he does pretty good!

Zoe did really well, he has a good eye for composition.

What I don't understand is why you parked on that log like that, looks to me like there was plenty of space around it.  Grin  Maybe I'm missing something.

I'll post some additional pics later this week.  This is the only one I shot on my iPhone.

For all of you that didn't make it, it was a blast!  The best part was helping Oz out after he showed up all of the Jeeps.  Its just too bad the photos don't do justice to the hill climbs.   Shocked

A lot of folks use Photoshop but maybe you might have some image editing software that came with your camera? If not try a google search there may be some shareware type applications on the web.
