BV Carnage (Buena Vista, Colorado) 11-19-11

Excellent day wheeling with some great friends on Carnage. We had 6 rigs. 2 Toyotas, 2 Jeeps, and 2 buggies. Both Toyota's are on 40's, one Rokmen Jeep on 42's, the other Rokmen Jeep on 37's, Scotty C's new buggy, and jpmassey's monster on 47's. No major issues with any of the rigs, everyone had a good day on the trail.

Cory and I (the two Toyota's) had to pull cable once, the damn ledges before the V-Notch. They are super dug out and had some mud at the bottom. Dave's Jeep on 37's made the ledges and the notch. Jeff's Jeep made the ledges but needed a small winch pull on the notch. His driver's side rear tire was too far up the wall and he tried everything he could to move it. He ended up with an awesome wheel stand. Scotty and jpmassey's buggies drove the ledges and the notch no problem.

This was the first trip though Carnage that everyone ended up making the exit! Even the 93" wheelbase TJ on 37's (without any issues, it was impressive)!




The parking lot in the morning. Mountains and clouds gave us quite the view.


Both Rokmen Jeeps and myself, right after the entrance.


Very little snow on the trail. It was in great shape for being Nov 19th.


Jeff lining up for the turtle rock.


On the belly


This Jeep is sick!


Boulder field before the V-Notch. You can see the mud at the bottom of the ledges at the bottom of the picture. No bees this late in the season, that's always a bonus


Trying a couple different lines on the ledges.


Starting up the notch.


Nice wheelstand!



The clouds stayed over the mountains all day. The weather was great, no wind in the canyon.

I've got some great video from my GoPro, I'll get it posted soon.

Scotty and his new buggy

My new body & slider work on the 4Runner


I hit driver's side slider hard at some point on the trail. Slider flexed up and dented the body and bent the slider so the door doesn't quite clear the slider. You can see the slider bent way up in that last pic.
