Hey Gang,
The first-ever Hummer-run went off quite well. I'm sorry to report that many members could not make it on account of the holidays, sickness or just being out of town...BUT they all called me and expressed interest in our next event, which should be in about 2-3 weeks!
We had a total of 5 Hummers, 3 H2's and 2 H1's...all experienced drivers looking for some serious action. The location proved to be exceptionally beautiful, but due to the fierce capability of the Hummers...not much of a challenge. It also didn't help that the park services cleared fallen trees and large debris from the road...talk about zapping our fun!
We still got out and made the most of it! Turns out the worst day offroading beats the best day working! (borrowed from a fishing saying).
Let's get to the pics!

The first time I saw the H2 I thought that the H2 is what the Jeep really wanted to be. However Jeeps do deserve respect. If Chrysler was smart enough to take the Grand Cherokee to the next level or two, GM may have been pre-empted or at least would have solid competition. Gotta hand it to Hummer and GM, the guys at Chrysler are feeling like they missed an opportunity.

A small rockslide...H2 tackles it. It's no biggy...but if you slip off the side...you only fall about 1,000 feet! (death-therapy sucks!)

Franco pulling up the rear in his mighty H1...always good to know he's pulling up the rear! Actually...he was one of the two who had the CB radio. Very cool guy!

Our most experienced and crazed members is Dave Vowell...he runs the H1 over anything and everything: pure madness.
His dad is in his mid 70's and loves to tag along with his little Jeeper. Not to be underestimated, that little jeep has the fancy heavy-duty axles and lots of good stuff. He's like those "ramora's" that tag along next to the sharks. Believe it or not, that little thing is extremely capable...it's sized just right. Very small though...not really meant for more then 2 people: an altogether different class of offroad vehicle.
