Default GLXJ Fall Crawl '08. Badlands ORV 10/26

I was invited to come hangout with a bunch of guys from Great Lakes XJ. They were having their official Fall Crawl event down in Attica, IN at the Badlands ORV park. So I went down showing my support from CherokeeForum and it was a great time. We primarily did the green trail which is supposed to be one of the easier ones. It rained a ton the day before we wheeled and the trails were a lot more difficult than many of imagined. How no one went away with more trail damage was good haha. One Cherokee did greet a tree with his door and a couple more minor things. All the guys that went were great and it was awesome to see the things my Jeep was capable of. The hills I climbed and the rocks I descended were not on my list of things to do because of trail damage and driving the Jeep back home. But with the great group and support the whole trip went well. The pictures only show some of the things we tackled, well because a lot of the trail didnt really allow for pictures when you are paying attention to what you are wheeling haha. But heres a ton....
