Can you say pain!    Can you feel pain!    We met up at Clydes at 6:30  am.  Steve, Greg.Dave, Austin, and one other man his name escapes me at the moment.   We pushed our way up Ice Box  Trail.      And up into no mans land.     I fell 5 times and chewed up my shoes pretty good.   Finally cought clyde up at the top  and i decided that threre was no way i was going back down  that trail i came up on.   So i pushed over the top and got lost in a hail storm.    It took me quite a while to find the trail again after jumping sage brush for about a half hour.      I   was glad i made it back to Clydes house alive.     Clyde was just about to take my car to Mesquite for lunch when i got back to his house.      Greg looked like he got shot at a few times.     More scares from ice the ice box trail. I am  glad to get this on done and live to tell about it.

you guys should look into some helmets and body armor if you are going to do that kind of a run again. was it just a bad trail or too dark to see.

Sounds like I missed out on a good one, you know how much I love trails to begin with.

Ryan

it was pretty dark at first. But it was not to bad by the time we hit the bad stuff. Jagged volcanic rock all the way up the trail.

Dustin, I think you would of made a sailor blush if you would of came with us this morning.

Sounds like a really fun run! I am glad that I am not watching the news tonight and them showing search and rescue looking for a wildbull in the St. George desert! Does it still look like we are going to have a team for the 50 mile relay?

Holy cow! It sounds like you guys had a great time ;) Good to hear you all survived. I'll be sure to turn down that trail if it ever come up ;D
