Psychic abilities! Kidding, I used to live on Church road so that was my back yard. I have a friend that has a cabin over in Hatchers and I ride wheelers and sleds up there all the time. You know why its called B-29 I assume? That wreck used to be a lot better. You could actually climb around inside the tail section about 20 years ago. We got down into that gully once and it was an epic adventure to get out of there. Kind of cool that there is a bogg on the side of a mountain. Never seen it anywhere else but Alaska.

Speaking of finding Alaska Rover owners! I'm moving up in the next few months, hoping to find some fellow Rover guys and do some wheeling. Are they're any Rover clubs up there?

I wish you had posted pics of the Bronco. I had a 96 Bronco with 351, it was awesome stock as well.

But you definitely had the advantage of all those other vehicles, they were employing The School of Bash and Crash, Stand on it and Point it up the Hill and Hope, while you are a member of the LR School of As Slow As Possible, As Fast as Necessary Place it in Low and Engage the CDL. Very unfair to them, they run on Adrenaline and probably two to three the the HorsePower of a Discovery, while you motor along probably sipping on your tea.
