Seed of Chucky was followed by another round of follow the leader down the main wash..... 

... after which we ran the lower part of Suzy's Choice before heading back to camp for lunch.

 

We saved the best for last.  Here is video of Jack and Dennis running the wall on S&M.

Video of my run up the wall.

After a good rain up north some of the holes on this trail can be filled with water making for some huge puddles.

Here is a video of Pat coming thru the deepest water hole.  At the start of the video you can hear us placing bets on how high the water will be.

The next pair of double falls provided some challenge again due to the unexpected water.

Video of my run up the two falls, be sure to enjoy Scott's creative camera work at the end.

Rob put on the best show, clawing his way up the first fall and then rolling over backwards on the second one.  Scott captured the whole sequence on video.  We made sure Rob's head was above water before poking fun at his predicament.

We recovered his rig by attaching my winch to the front of his cage and winched his rig back the opposite way he rolled.

We made it back to camp an hour or so after dark.  We got a big fire going so Rob could dry his clothes and then had a great dinner followed by some campfire entertainment.  Thanks to everyone for the great time.
