I decline the prize. No thank you.

I just don't see the unsafe side of driving the motorhome up and down Mision Sta Maria, If you're doing it with a bunch of great guys!

I pulled another Jeep up the series of grades IN A SHORT WHEELBASE JEEP - FULLY LOADED. Yes, I am here to claim my prize! Thanks, Art. I cut my tires up - they still hold air. I was backed into by another Jeep while parked on slickrock, and killer bees nearly stung me while walking the trail in 93 deg. heat. Phew!
