Paragon Adventure Park

As our trail guide lead the group, we were having some fun with a scavenger hunt that OK4WD came up with for the groups during their trail rides Saturday.  The idea was to find as many playing cards from 3 decks that were placed throughout the park and also locate some items such as the "best" broken u-joint part, the whitest rock, the largest crayfish.  At the end of the day prizes would be given out to the winners.

These locations are always fun.  Places where an obstacle has to be crossed or cleared and everyone gets a chance to park and jump out as a spectator and take some pictures.  Our first obstacle was this water crossing.

This water crossing wasn't too bad for the 4x4s like these Jeeps - about 2 - 3 feet deep and predictable.  But it was a different story for the Quads that followed up behind our group.  At three feet deep that was about as tall as one of these Quads and this river crossing was a considerable challenge for them.  Just check out the pictures below.
