We still cannot go past committed. Apparently from what we heard today you have to go down committed and back up committed and we are not to go around it

wow!  that sucks :(  good stuff past there.  I'm not sure i would want to go down commited, but i 'need' to go up it, again.  Commited was my inspiration for clearencing my bed!

Jeremy, if want to the next time we go there we'll use a winch and back your Taco down Commited so you can try to come back up. The last I had heard is that the area past the top of the hill was closed so we did not venture past there, but we did walk down to Commited so everyone could see it.

there was some confusion about going past there a while back when we ran into that other club. they said that it was off limits. axle was supposed to talk to toxic about it but toxic was out of town or something. i don't know if he ever talked to him or not.

A week from Saturday would be the 17th and we currently have a cruise day scheduled for that Saturday. I'd be willing to go back up there again though.

So how did you do with the stocker TJ???

I have nothing to be ashamed of.  I made it to the top of MaBell.  I also only had to use the side trail once.  Even then it wasn't until I gave the obstacle several good tries.  I feel that if it hadn't been raining I would have conquered that obstacle as well.  I look forward to the November run and also look forward to putting the MaBell kill sticker on the side of the TJ!  I will admit though that in the beginning of the trail I did wonder if I had bitten off more that I could chew.  NOPE!
This was taken about mid way up.  I am the orange TJ in the middle.
