Carbonado River

November 16,03

Not much by way of pictures.  We were too busy trying to stay dry . 

There was only two small occurrences on this trip.  At the air down spot Ben locked his keys in his Taco.  We asked if he had a spare.  His comment was, "I have a spare in my wallet".  We thought whew good thing.  So where's your wallet?  His response, "In the truck".  

After an unsuccessful crack at being car thieves Ben and LA decided to try the sliding rear window.  A little pop with a screwdriver and they were in.  

Jim (Trooper Dude) shredded his serpentine belt. 

He didn't realize it till we reached the lake.  As he was backing his Trooper in a spot to make room for the rest of the group he noticed a nice green trail ahead of him. Though it was a quick repair the freezing 50mph wind gust didn't help much.

All in all its great to wheel with such a fun bunch.
