May - TX4WD Run
Alto, Texas -
May 8th, 2004
We got to bring a
new Jeeper along (Erik) and I think he's hooked. We met in
Willis at 6:00AM and we were off to Shiloh. We visited
"Helicopter Pad" first. It's a long (60ft) steep hill with
an easy, medium and hard trail leading up it. I was told that
it's called helicopter Pad because of the way that ATV's take
off from the top of the hill and get air before they land.

Then we visited
the two rock gardens and broke for lunch. We wheeled a little
after lunch and ended up back at the helicopter pad. Matt pushed
his Jeep a little to far and managed to break the U-joint and
axle end in his YJ. We met him back at camp, rigged a fix with a
diet coke bottle and some duct tape and ended up
following him home. Regardless, it was a great trip.
