Killer Lake ... A 2004 Photo Album to remember for those there. For those who didn't make it, see what YOU MISSED .
The date was Sept. 25, 2004. The weather was about 20 C, partly cloudy. Perfect for offroading and trail riding. Hardly a bug anywhere. The Lexus again made it everywhere the "BIG BOYS" went except for the tree and rocks climbing ... but then how many did?. Hmmm ...

James, Bud, Ric ( holding his new snorkel ).
|
1st Hunt camp along Killer Lake trail ... been there before but no further.
|
Bud, James, Ric at 2nd Hunt Camp with the "bridge".
|
|
"Sizing" up a plank/log/rock bridge that must be crossed. Lots of advice.
|
Hmmm... more work necessary for the bridge I guess. 4Runner again sets the path.
|
Superwinch to the rescue. Never leave home without .......... a working winch.
|
|
Bridge was "beefed" up for the "cars".

|
Deep in the bush, a Bronco gets tamed ... well scratched and bashed. Nice flattened chrome exhausts.
|
A ripped tire meant it didn't make it out that day.Plan was to come in that night returning from Ottawa to get it out ... RIGHT ! Might still be there.

Steve and Pauly taking it easy. Gotta save the Jeep for the rock climbs.

|
Killer Lake ... listening for some ATVs coming, then BBQing
|
Al showing everyone how well a Suzuki can rock climb. beating a 600cc ATV easily !!!
|
|
Pauly trying but not quite making it.
|
Mating ?
|
Back at ya !
|
|
Heading off Killer L. trail back to Hydro line. No takers for the "hole" that Ric & Curtis tried last year. What are the BIG tires FOR then?
|
Chris' broken rear axle ... led to front wheel drive home. Only 1 try at rock climbing and see what happens.
|
... and THIS is when it broke !
|
|
From here on, the Ric's 4Runner, Curtis' Land Cruiser and Mike's CJ7 will be shown with rear LOCKRITE lockers.
|
Now we have NO excuses if we get stuck ... maybe I do with only 31's.
