# Earlier that day...

Squaw woke me up this mourning when a package was delivered to the house. I decided to buy a Warn M12000 winch so I could take my rig rock crawling with Max in the Smokey Mountains.
I ate some breakfast and then headed out to the Native Customs garage to install my new toy.
After installing the winch, I tuned up the Commando so I could test my new hardware.
It's around a thirty minute drive to Max's place so I loaded up my gear and prepared for a full day of winch climbs. I told Squaw goodbye

### Warrior:

"I'll see you later Squaw. I'll be back early because Max should be calling sometime today. It's been two years since he was here and I can't wait to go on some fun adventures like the good ol days!"
I set off on my journey and when I arrived in the Smokey Mountain range, I decided to try my winch on a set of rocks past the waterfall and across the big mud pit.
As I drove by the Parks and Wildlife Office, I noticed a man hanging out the window trying to wave me down.

### man:

"Hey! How's it going?"

### Warrior:

"Pretty good. Just doing some offroadin. How about you?"

### man:

"I'm doing pretty good too though I'm kind of in a bind. There are some very valuable bald eagle eggs atop some rocky areas. Problem is that I need to retrieve them but don't have the necessary equiptment to get up there. I saw you had a winch so I thought I'd holler at you and see if you'd help me out!"

### Warrior:

"Sure man, I was just on my way to try out my new winch anyway so I'd be happy to help you out!"
He then handed me a map and to my surprise, there was an egg marked near the old tower.

## man:

"Do you think you can get them in three hours? If so, meet back here behind the office at 2 o' clock."

## Warrior:

"Yeah bro I bet I can easily do that in 3 hours! I'll meet you at 2 o'clock then."
I put up the map and went on my way.
Approximately 10 miles later, I arrived at the tower. I noticed Balthazar moved the team RCG office over hear. I guess I should talk to him after I finish collecting these eggs.
I looked up at the top of the jagged rocky cliff while shading my eyes from the blinding sunlight, I realized that this would be an almost verticle climb!

## "I'm definently going to need this new wench!"

I'll need to use strategedy with my winch points to make the sharp angled edge
I made it up the cliff and retrieved the first egg!
After retrieving all 5 eggs, I returned about 30 late but the man was still waiting behind the office.

## man:

"Did you retrieve all five bird eggs?"

## Warrior:

"Yeah bro I've got them right here! So are you the park ranger around here?"

## man:

"uh yeah that's right. We need to save the bald eagles because they are still an endangered species. Thanks alot pal!"

## Warrior:

"ok, later bro!"
It was getting late so I headed back home to wait for Max's call.
Later that night, the phone rang.

## Max:

"As I promised, I'm calling you to let you know I've arrived at the cabin." "I'm gonna call it a night but will be ready for some fun offroadin tomorrow!" "Just come on by the cabin and we'll head on out for some adventure."

## Warrior:

"Ok Max. Sounds good!"
