Let me spend some time nailing this down today and then I'll email out.

Just checking...are you picking trails that you can drive your mini van on? Should I bring my the Range Rover instead of the Brute?

Work is slow enough, I may be able to get off for Thursday. The biggest question would be minimum vehicle requirements as I'm all stock for now.

Awesome time yesterday. Big thanks to everyone (Jack, Jake, Ed, Jeff, Andrew and Roxanne, and Ben) that came out. Ed flew from Hawaii and drove from Seattle in his Brute for this. Andrew came straight off work at 5am to do it; 30+ hours awake. Thanks for sacrifices made by all...time off work, away from family, etc. Also thanks to Eddie for letting me post this up.

Here are some pics. Hope the other guys add some as well.

Thanks for the spot Jeff!

Awesome, Scott. Great job on putting that all together. I'm sure you showed the children an awesome time, which is the most important part.

It was all smiles when the puddle splashing started. And that was just the road to the trailhead, lol.

Thank you again Scott, I'm really happy to have been a part of that.

Random photo from our morning pre-run:

On another day we might have given this wall a shot, but time constraints had us turning around here on Longwater Gulch. Oh well, another time.

Awesome! Great time for a great cause. If I new I was going to break my leg and be on light duty I would have committed. I like this idea so hopefully next year I can work it out. I'd make the drive.

You guys definitely could have tackled that, though I would probably turn around with a rig full of kiddos too!

Looks like you guys had a heck of a time, and more importantly made a huge impact on kiddos who definitely need it.

I'm bummed that I couldn't help out this time, but I will not be missing the next one.

Awesome clip. Good job with the slow motion editing.

Thanks

Thanks again Scott for organizing this! It was an honor to serve those kids and i'm sure they'll be talking about it for a looooooong time haha. I didn't take a whole lot of pictures, but here's the few I did take:
