As with the Picture thread, here we can post a central thread of reviews/thoughts and funny moments from the trip. I'll do it later. Sleepy now.

Yup I know. You missed a good run on Sunday tho with Rich. We took a few trails nobody took all weekend long, AND were out of there before 2.

Mostly alot of small loops, like Bunny Trail...that's the short loop off of coal road by the staging area. We also took Bypass...that's the one I suggested to you to take, and we did a few smaller loops around Doe Run.

I believe the final truck count was around 40. There were some who just never showed up, and some who cancelled a day or two before. Had that not happened, it might have topped 50...not really sure. Swampy would know for sure.
(I just know at the campground, I counted 37, and there were a few people staying at a hotel).

The amazing thing about Sunday was that almost everyone left which left only a few of us out there. But somehow we all managed to all backup and meet at Spare Tire Creek, including a whole jeep group and 3 ATV riders ;p

After ECXC, I was on (driving) vacation through the East coast, into the Maritimes (NS, NB...) and over to Newfoundland. I just got home after almost a month on vacation, so this post is a little late...
ECXC was great, looking forward to it again next year. Big thanks to Oleg for a great job spotting me on a lot of obstacles...he even got me through the rock swamp without even hitting a slider!
