If I can get my charge light to go out sometime between tonight and 9 am Sunday morning, I'm there.

Sounds good.
Lets hope for more sunshine like today, there is amazing views over the Fraser Valley from the trail up the side of Church Mountain.

Will not be making it. Grabbed a new Delco alternator and figured on doing the much-publicized conversion that's apparently as easy as 1-2-3, A-B-C.
It's not.
So after spending the entire tire bending and welding up new bracketry, I missed Lordco by 10 minutes to get a new fan belt to fit up the new alternator mount setup... and won't be ready to go for tomorrow morning :(

Thanks Andy and Shawn for a great run on Sunday, and for all your help getting my Disco over a couple of obstacles. The last one was more pulling and winching than my driving skill, but I made it.
The weather was nice, only had some light rain once or twice and that helped cool me off (I had quite a workout cutting logs with an axe).
One item I’m bringing next run is a chainsaw!

Yes, it was a challenging fun run!
We had the tug straps out several times (all vehicles getting a tug at one time or another), there was road building, winching, the high lifts came out twice, sink holes, wash outs, land slides, steep muddy hills and even some snow at the end!
Thanks Bill for posting the photos and no worries, we will catch you on the next trip!
