April 2004 Baja Jeep 4WD 3-day Run to Guadalupe Canyon with the Rubicon Owners of California


:bounce: Guadalupe Canyon with the RUBICON OWNERS OF CALIFORNIA! :bounce:

Picking up additional supplies in Tecate.


Gassing up our Gerry Cans and gas tanks at the Rumorosa Pemex station.


We had over $200,000.00 worth of new Rubicons on this Baja run. All of the Jeeps were bought, then built!

On the ready...La Laguna Salada, Baja, Mexico.


We took a short break to check maps at Cohabuzo Junction.


Pulling the swaybar links out of the way for some serious Baja rock running.


Our Jeeps conquered Caņon el Mano without any broken parts all weekend.


But, I did manage to high-center my Rubicon on a boulder.


Russ Traughber and Bob helped me with the Hi-Lift as we lifted the Jeep and stacked rocks under the tires.


It's great having friends along to help with the heavy lifting!:yes:


Bob from Corona, CA had a great time in Baja.


Jason's long-arm suspension made quick work of a rock we articulated our Jeeps on. David K was amazed at what little it took to make Jeepers excited in Baja.:lol:


Returning to El Caņon de Guadalupe where Canyonman Rob had our hot tubs all ready for the entire Rubicon club!:bounce:


Baja dust can't be purchased...it must be earned!:!:


Russ smoked his cigar and had a nice, relaxing time in Baja.

...almost forgot!


David K's son Chris brought his friend Jimmy along who watched us drive our Jeeps through the rocky Caņon el Mano canyon.

Me driving my Jeep with Jimmy looking on.


Play Safe!

Actually Jimmy was my friend... I had forgotten he came down with us. Do you have more photos of that trip? I remember Brock in his Isuzu Trooper was along too, and he and I had a laugh watching all the Jeeps taking turns driving one tire up on that rock for a photo. After seeing that Jeep commercial you posted the other day, it all makes more sense now! LOL
