Wow, that looks pretty extreme. Great driving there and some cool rigs.

That trail looks like it has some really big teeth... to say the least.
Can't believe that white 4Runner still has it's rear glass after some of those lines... especially the notch. Great videos. Very impressive. :great: |
Nice trail, and driving, but keep the peeps away from the winch cable while winching, last vid. Ruins a great day real quick if teh cable breaks.

Was it crowded or was there carnage? 12 hrs seems like a long time even for that "trail"!
I think I would invest in some armor before bigger tires Volcom ... no matter how big the rig, the rocks are always bigger! |

It took a long time mostly because the trail isn't a couple of obsticals with a trail connecting them. Almost the entire trail is a continuous obstical. |

I think I would invest in some armor before bigger tires Volcom ... no matter how big the rig, the rocks are always bigger! Becky and Tom: Scratched paint on drivers side fender flares (flare portion) Aaron: Heavy drivers side body damage (to the point the drivers door does not fit) Tail hatch has some serious twicking Front fender damage Front Grille, headlight facia, and corner light Eric: Broken front short side axle shaft Body damage to the right rear quarter Broken left rear taillights Dented window frame Terry: Broken left front hub Crushed in driver door Unknown engine problems after ramming into a very large rock Don: Made it about 50 feet when we realized that his front ARB did not engage Jeff: Scratched paint down both drivers side tube doors Bent/Dented B-pillar Cut valve stem The broken hub and front axle shaft repairs took an hour and a half to fix. Yeah, the truck now needs some armor. I have been waiting to figure out what I was going to do EXO-wise before I built up a front and rear bumper. I have the tubing bender in my garage, just no money or time to use it. I'll be armored with bigger tires before I try that trail again :saw: |

I was amazed to come out of that trail with not a scratch on my body paint. The tube work did it's job. It was a good time, but not high on my list of trails to go back to soon.
Do you ever swap the full doors back on, or is it now full time tube? If you do swap back, how do you manage all the electronic connections? |

That is a bomber trail for sure.
Good driving and careful attention to keep that glass in tact. I have never seen a bodied truck go through there clean without many hours or huge effort. Good driving, great trail. |
We ran the trail with people who had done it last year and all they kept saying was "I don't remember this obstical" or " we went through this with no problem" You could tell a very large storm hit the area and washed out a lot of debris just by looking at the area below the entry to the trail. After comparing some pics from last year you can see how washed out it is now.

After looking at the pictures, that's some crazy angle! http://home.comcast.net/~uncleharrys...e_IMG_6123.jpg CubuffRunner navigating the exit. |
Those are some amazing before and afters. :eeek:
Doesn't even look like the same trail. Some major erosion there. I can see how the ones who did it before would be confused now. Even more impressive such "minimal" damage was incurred. |
holy crap, that is a serious trail. I need a lot mroe expierence with mine before even attempting something like that.
Question for you guys, are most of you guys autos or sticks. I've been driving a stick for years but felt like a retard when we went through carnage boulder just being at the angles and working the clutch. Gona need some more seat time on some less wicked stuff before I go up there. |
