Cow Mountain 5-30-09

If I had only one word for Cow Mt. it would be "DUSTY". My Boss and I went, he has a 92 YJ he bought just 2 months ago and wanted to take it somewhere to try it out. My Aussie Locker in the rear worked great, never spun a wheel. I didn't get very many pics. Here are some of the pics I did take.

The Boss got alittle crossed up here, he's limited slip rear didn't seem to work. He had one tire spinning front and rear with all of them on the ground. I'm guessing the clutch plates out shot?


There are some steep hills, which don't show well in pictures. Heres one I came down. The Boss didn't want to try it so he went around.

There are some great views of Clear Lake and the hills.

do you remember the names or numbers of the trails you ran and any other trails that would be fun for a stock runner w/ 32s and a locker?

I know that one of them was #23, Which is a long trail and about haft way there's a water crossing and than a very steep hill. We turned around at that point. I think I could have made it but, the Boss didn't want to try it. There are a lot of do able trails. Get a map and go for it.(with another rig of coures)
