At mile 31.4 we got onto a heavily rutted muddy clay stretch. We watched in amazement as a jacked up mud-ripper climbed up it sliding all over the place. My derailleur exploded right in the section and Fattic broke my chain and turned my bike into a singlespeed.

We ran into some nasty mud about 1/3 of the way through and then encountered a couple of hunters in a 4WD. They said more nasty mud was ahead so we headed over to the powerline road for a mile or two before encountering a stupidly steep section of that.

I think my device went on the fritz from mile 19 to mile 21. Our line couldn't have been that straight.

Mile 19 - what actually happened:

Mile 19.1 was where we met the hunters in the massive 4WD pickup who told us not to keep following Rim Road due to heavy mud. The more specific location was where Rim Road intersects with the powerline. The white pickup dudes and another 4WD kid who came through a minute later said we could follow the power line road for miles. That didn't provide to be the case (super steep shit).
