Default John Bull Aftermath

So a my buddies wrangler crew invited me to big bear this weekend so i decided hell why not and show them up, so we went out friday afternoon and camped a little past hanna flats some reservation **** BS. anyhow they wanted to do a night run at John Bull with 5 rigs so we went out, we did the whole trail in about 45min or so and on the way out we decided to do a little rally racing......well a tree from lord of the rings decided to ****en jump out of no where and hit my tire so i couldnt control it and i ended up jumped my jeep about 30FT
