BACKCOUNTRY 4X4 CLUB MUD RUN DAY 2

M.U.D. Run day 2
Today's trail run guided by Eugene​ exceeded expectations...what a day! :)

The day started off by getting a little lost in Ellershouse, but Tom showed us the way. Then we couldn't find the trail entrance as the area had been cleared a little. I had the map on my Garmin, so we found it. Luckily the trail entrance next to the clearing was untouched.

Before we entered the trail, my alternator decided  to stop working. So I got a couple of bump offs. Then in the trail entrance I stalled out and couldn't get going again. Matt jumped in and broke the accelerator cable. Then we found a couple of wires with bare copper showing that had shored out on the firewall, popping my ignition fuse.

Once we got the wires and accelerator cable fixed, we were on our way !

The trail we ran was a reversed 2015 Day 3 trail, which started by a really nice hill climb over some big rocks.

Then it was business as usual for a MUD Run....lots of nice tight technical trails, rocks and...well, not a lot of MUD - just how I like it !! :)
