Bay State Rovers 2006 Fall Heritage run

Held the weekend of September 24 at Hawk Resort in Plymouth. I went on the middle run, which departed the camp area at 10 and didn't make it back till 8. There was a lot of pushing, winching, and struggling to get 12 trucks through the trail.

It rained off and on throughout the day.

The trail was harder than people expected, with more trucks getting jammed on rock.
