OK Lets get the ball rolling
WOW what a weekend is about all I can say. I will let every person divulge thier own stories and I'll leave it at this small damage report for now
CJ-7 Lift install started Fri night and Completed around 9am Sat, CJ-7 Lift spring nearly destroyed by 1400 that same day. BEfore the springs crapped out we lost brakes on a down hill section of trail. A quick install of YJ brake line and we were good on that part. After fixing the shackles and a little fancy jack work springs were fixed.
While this is going on Brian's Rubi is being torn apart to replace a broken D44 axle shaft
The I take out Larry's TJ only to discover a UJoint with a lost cap, a quick Ujoint change got it rolling again. Then at the beginning of the night ride I blow a 37" PitBull rocker.
Fast forward to the next morn, Do LIttle Brian takes out the TJ and SNAP a Chromo D60 shaft eats it in the same place I blew the tire. Tiff lost 2 D44 front UJoints in his Rubi. The little CJ that could received a couple minor scratches and a dent or two, nothing major,
and finally as I am rolling out I see a Toyota Buggy that was riding with up being towed in with a total power loss.
and how can I forget about 10 min into the first trail of the day Brock (Liquer) blew a hydro steering line and had to leave his rig on the trail most of the day. and The red YJ that came from IL devistaed a pair of front leaf springs but went on like a trooper wheeling it again today.

NOTHING good happens after 10pm, except in the bedroom.
Busted a mirror checking out some tail.
Duuuude, Thats all I can say.Fred, Brian (Ol' Retired dude), Doug, and myself left the base camp after Repairing the rear axle, with all intentions of just checkin out if everything went back together right. Well,...after a short trail ride with Fred in Ghost's Jeep, Brian, Doug, and myself decided to continue up Pee Wee's Xing. After becomin bored with the level 2 bunny trail (not to mention getting close to raffle time) someone had the bright idea, we decided to head up Puppy Licker, a level 5 trail, to get back to the main road. Did I say, Duuuude? By far the hardest trail I have been on at SMORR, or for that matter, ever. It is hard to explain with out being there, but Duuuude (or Duuuudet) you should have been there. All I can say is, thank the man upstairs for good armor, good tires, and most of all good luck, but we all made it with little obvious carnage. If you have the guts and the gear I encourage you should hit his trail if you get the chance. I think Brian may still be pumped up about making this climb.
