A small group of us conquered Elvis over the weekend and also explored a couple other trails on foot.

Here's what Elvis had to offer -







The lone Jeep..






Elvota climbing the notch in style...




Another wheelie...look at his facial expression


Elvota made it look easy...


Steve was the only one to do this obstacle..


The squeeze in a 3rd Gen 4runner...tight fit


The view on the ride out...

 

Yet another sweet run in AZ!!

Thanks everyone for the good spotting and trail finding.

The addition of that dual crawler has to be the best mod I have done so far. Such a difference. Although... it was nice having my ARB function as well.

 

Looks like a real good time...I love seeing Elvota's runner in action as it reminds me of mine.

 

Looks like you guys had fun. what is Elvis rated, as in comparison to Axle Alley? when I did Elvis, it seemed pretty easy, compared to Axle Alley.

 

Elvis is one of my favorite trails now. I really enjoyed that trail, especially that first waterfall. That was a fun climb.

How awesome is that double low 4.7 gear?? Now you wonder how you ever wheeled without that.

 

I've never done Axle Alley. From what I understand, Elvis is easier, but you can make Elvis as hard or easy as you want.

Several of the easier obstacles were stacked We cleared some of the rock stacking, but it was bad in places, especially the squeeze near the end.

 

So is Axle next?

 

Yeah, I would check out Axle. Have you done it? How was it?

Bad Medicine is next though...the exit looks fun

 

Yeah, I've done it. Its a great trail, I would highly recommend running it. Although, be sure there are several of you guys to get up the large waterfalls. I would think Schaefer has done it, maybe he can take you guys up there.







Have any pics from Bad Medicine?

 

Steve hasnt done AA.

Bad Medicine - I didnt get any photos...didnt bring the camera along for the hike, but here's a couple photos I stole from another site.

Cool! It looks very challenging and fun.

 

Little wheelstand video

 

Elvis is one of the best trails I have ever ran.

Did anyone do the "J" turn?

It looks like you guys had fun, any carnage?

 

Is the "J Turn" where the main trail goes straight, but off to the right there is a deep pocket that is followed by a very tight left up step? The obstacle that looks pretty straightforward until you see a rig try and fit through?

If so, Westy and Mark went that way. In fact, the pic above with Mark's classic facial expression is him cresting the obstacle.

 

Yeah, that's the one...good obstacle.

Steve and Joe (in the Slee 80) are the only ones who would attempt it last year.

 

Is this the J-turn, or coming out of it?

 

Both are coming out of the J-Turn.

 

This is in the J-turn...photos dont tell much of a story. Bad angles...but you get the idea. In the photo just below you can see ahead of my truck to the left is the exit climb. It's a funky obstacle. Wheelstand almost guaranteed as Mark found out...somehow I avoided one, long wheel base I think.

 

Nice pics and write up guys....looks like fun.

Where abouts is this trail? FJ?

 

Yup, FJ.
