We had problems with the winds as well. It woke us up as we were trying to sleep in Dockside's parking lot.

Hey Tim I know what you mean about the cross wind. My truck with the condo on the back and the Jeep in tow was like a huge sail.

There was lots of rain and the ensuing mud was exceptionally fun. There was one hill which rattled me a little as it could be likened to a ‘running stream of mud’, Theresa drove this and had zero traction and the JEEP somehow made it down taking care of its own because she certainly didn’t have any control over the steering. There were ATV’s all over the place, to the point where they were annoying, it reminded me of the early days of snowboarding when they began to overtake the ski slopes and they were regarded in the same disdainful way. They were given the CB nickname “trail gnats” and in fairness, the drivers were generally friendly and polite, it’s just that they were EVERYWHERE and very noisy. I had a perilously close encounter with the driver of a truck pulling ATV’s as I was leaving the park, he came around the blind side of the mountain in MY LANE and luckily I missed the head-on by a split second and ended up in the drainage ditch. He and another vehicle saw what they did but kept on driving, we called for help on the CB and didn’t think we were heard. Another truck pulling ATV’s pulled over to help us out by directing traffic while the JEEP easily drove out of the ditch. As I turned on an exit road I saw in my mirror a long line of Tidewater Four Wheelers round the corner, my SOS had been heard and they were looking for us! There is indeed strength in unity and seeing our club members rally together like that was a great feeling. They were sympathetic to my outrage and were wonderful about changing my rear tire which had a 4” rip in the sidewall as a result of the accident. Their help overshadowed the deeds of the creep and made it yet another memorable four wheeling event! Thank you all for your help, you were awesome!

I made it back ok with a couple of dented rims, a flat tire and an axle seal that is leaking on the passenger side. Thank heavens for warranty! You guys are right, the cross winds were brutal!
