The family and I made a quick trip to Capitol Forest to check out the powerline road and view the massive landslide that had occurred during previous heavy rains. I can't find the impressive pictures of the landslide, so I will update the post with those pictures later.

Time to get out for a walk
Here lies an XJ that has seen better days. It looked like a joyride to me. I had seen this wreck earlier in the year when it was very intact, complete with 31" Super Swampers. I posted it's existence (but not it's exact location) on NAXJA in hopes of finding the owner before it was stripped. By now the the vandals and looters have worked it over pretty good and flipped it over.
During our hike up the landslide Heidi spotted a horseshoe in the debris and commissioned me to retrieve it. Who knows how old this is or where it came from, but it managed to avoid burial during the carnage.
Time to go home by reversing our route!
