"SEVENTIES IN THE SWELL"
San Rafael Swell, Utah
6/28-7/1/2012
This year Amie, Rusty and I made it to the 4th annual Relic Run here in Utah. It was our second time out with the gang and we just had a great time in central Utah's desert.
Rather than putting this posting off until I have the time to write the story I'll just let the photos speak for themselves and add the details to it when I get the time. I will add another few photos that are currently in development as soon as I get em.
All in all it was an absolutely awesome adventurous 4x4 expedition. Next year there is talk that we might go up around Bear Lake.

My amazing partner. I love you so much Amie! |

Awesome shot of Jeremy's FJ55 rolling through the desert |

19 rigs and only one significant failure on the whole trip. Kurt's blue FJ40 made it though. |

The view from our cots at our last campsite of the trip, just a little slice of heaven right there. |

Pot luck dinner on the third and final night, dang that was some tasty food! |
