Jeeps Gone Wild Dec. 6th Toys for Tots @ Badlands
This is a trail report for the Jeeps Gone Wild Dec. 6th Toys for Tots @ Badlands trail run.

This run was a little different than the majority of JGW runs. The one involved snow, and ice. I will say that the snow made the easy stuff challenging, which was great.

There were only 9 rigs in our group but a few tagged along and it was a great time.

Here are a couple of the shots I grabbed. If you were there add yours in your post!!!

This is what the creek looked like.


Getting ready to drop down.

Here is Chris, chilling his YJ.


This was much steeper than it seems.

Wow....that looks so cool. I really wish I could have made it....but I'm sure the water would have wreaked havoc on my axle seal.

Yeah that icy water looked fun. I wish I could have been there for this one as it was the only really snowy/icy run I have had the op to go to. Maybe next year, and thanks for the pics!!!

After you left we played in the dunes, went back to the quarry and played there for a bit. Then I found an old trail that we blazed through up in the woods near the Blue trail and the Creek trail. After that we went down the Creek trail and hit that nice climb on the far side of the Creek. We then followed the Creek trail past the tubes and went all the way down the other side. (That is there the pics of Chris in his YJ were taken). We did a cool hill climb u turn and cruised through the creek back to the entrance.

I don't know about you guys but my Jeep is ready for a winter of rest and relaxation!
