let the other 'net denizens fill you in on the rally. Yup, it was pretty cold Friday night...folks down from New York said that they hadn't had frost up north yet. The only problem Friday night was that some bloody git left the tap open on the keg of porter. $50 worth spilled into the tub. :-0 And for those trying to find the site, the signs started disappearing early. By Sunday morning, *all* had been knicked.

At the mine site, there was a large pile of tailings from a shaft located maybe 100 feet above the streambed. (Anyone for a winching challenge up a 60+ degree tailing pile?). There was a steep trail up to the shaft. Rick with lockers fore and aft decided that he wanted to get his Defender up there. Now to paint the picture. He had to drive off of a 3 foot stream bank into the streambed (which was not much wider than a D90 is long) and then climb up the other side which was the valley wall. The other side was loose (though not tailings) crumbly rock at maybe 45 degrees of slope. If Rick could get his front wheels up 20 or so feet, he would make it. After moving some of the larger (200 lb class) rocks, and locking his diffs, Rick make his attempt. It was too steep. But in attempting, Rick managed to wedge a 6 inch thick, 1.8 foot diameter rock between his frame, rear axle, right rear tyre and the ground. His D90 still had it's front wheels way of the side of the trail. So Rick was "between a Rock and a hard place" With a section of pipe was able to removed the rock with about 10 minutes of work. (And the LR V8 was happily running with no loss or pressure at this extreme angle). After that Rick extracted himself.

Commentary: Here's the second part of the story. What is cool in the case is that LRCanada rejected an offer to settle for 500,000$ Total cost of the trial: probably around 1 million bucks. Gee, I was wondering why those Range Rovers were so expensive!
