Dusty,
Thanks for leading the trail ride today. I really enjoyed the trail and the company!

So sorry to be that guy today. Ended up being nothing, just siked myself out. Wifey drove it and said "it drives fine". Took all the skids off, everything nice and tight. Thanks Rick for letting me borrow your radio, and a special thanks to the OG who followed me out. Hope everyone had a great time and enjoyed one of my favorite trails. I'll get my head on straight before next year

No worries! I'm glad it turned out to be nothing. Coincidentally, by the end of Horsethief I was starting to feel a slight bit of play in my own steering rack. I took it easy for the rest of the weekend, and on Sunday's run up Heartbreak Ridge I left it down in Round Valley just in case it decided to grenade back where I wouldn't be able to get to it with a trailer. I'll be swapping in that HOSS 3.0 rack that's been sitting on my shelf, soon.

You're quite welcome! Horsethief turned out to be a bit more challenging than I remembered it so I think I misrepresented it slightly. But everyone made it through great, and some folks were able to level up a bit

I'm not sure what you have Dusty, but for those folks looking to upgrade that part of their Bronco Ford Performance recently released an upgraded steering rack for the Bronco. It's only $1,300!

This steering upgrade looks worthwhile. Especially if you're thinking about 37+ tires. Thanks for putting it out there. Also, thanks for making the BBBB once again a wonderful time.

I definately leveled up on that one Dusty! Whether I needed it or not, it’s amazing what these Broncos are capable of in full “hero mode”. Thanks for the awesome run.

Hey everyone WE WANT YOUR PHOTOS from this run! I maintain a massive repository of photos from So Cal Broncos runs and events stretching back to 2002. I've just created the various galleries for Big Bear Bronco Bash XXIII in my SmugMug account, where you can upload your photos for everyone to see, and where they will be preserved in our SCB photo archive indefinitely. You may have already posted them to Facebook or elsewhere, which is great, but here they will have a permanent home that's easy to find and enjoy by everyone for years to come, rather than quickly falling off everyone's social media news feed to never be seen again. As an added bonus, these collections also feed into our So Cal Broncos social media postings as well as trail-specific photo galleries on the SCB website. So please consider adding yours to the collection(s). Please upload your original photos in their original resolution (preferably not scaled down due to uploading then re-downloading from Facebook or IG), and preferably without any editing or filters. Just go to the gallery for this run at the following link, and look for the upload link in the gallery description to add your own photos. Myself and So Cal Broncos thank you! The gallery this run is at https://dustysharp.smugmug.com/So-C...-Bronco-Bash-XXIII/BBBBXXIII-Horsethief-Flats

Dusty, I think I added some pics to upper Holcombe that were supposed to go on Horsethief. Not sure if the link was wrong or I clicked wrong. Let me know if I can self-edit after upload and I’ll remove them, or you can go ahead. It was 12 pics.

You are correct and I had the wrong upload link in that gallery description. I've fixed it now, and moved your photos into the right gallery. Thanks for pointing out that mistake!

Check out the video of the drive down to Horsethief Flats from last Friday I just downloaded to Dusty's SCB smugmug account. Hope you enjoy the jazz!
