This started out to be a visit to Paragon to
check out a little used section of the property and  turned out to be a
challenging and enjoyable day. We met in the morning at the blue vomit and got
underway to the trail-head. There we prepared our vehicles (disconnect sway bars,
hubs, air-down, etc..) and set out. The beginning was mostly a dirt road with a few
puddles, but we soon arrived at an off-camber rock ledge. We all made without
incident,
Chris was hoping to try his new tree
sliders (sorry). I was pretty excited
about this trip because I just finished
installing a T-18 into my CJ and wanted to
test it out. Needless to say by first
somewhat difficult spot I was able to creep
down with control and finesse I quickly
discovered the advantage of lower gears.
The rest of the day was full of new
discoveries and challenges. I smacked
a fender on a rock in the water, luckily the
fiberglass fender bent in and popped back
out and I only suffered some chipped paint.
