after brian and pat left, me and heath headed north into NH to check out a trail that heath had driven by before but hadn't had a chance to check out. We got there, started up the powerlines hill and found a jeep rubicon trying to climb the next part of the trail without much success. nobody could make it so we drove down the road, entered some different trails that we had driven by on our way up there and proceeded down the most hardcore trails that i have yet to drive with my truck, heath's truck, and the jeep rubicon (which got stuck in a mud crossing that me and heath got through no problem) (and rubicons have both locked front and rear)
all in all, good day with no damage, lots of good times, and even more mud

hey eric,i am suddenly glad that we left when we did! that last trail that the three of us did was enough stress for my first time wheeling. plus one of my u-joints started talking, so it was time. it was already scheduled to get fixed on tuesday, so all is good. where abouts in new hampshire did you guys go? there are some power lines in goffstown, and a trail that i have yet to experiment on in weare. anyhow, thanks for posting up those pics, and thanks for a hell of a day.

troy NH

and last night i found an online map of NH showing unmaintained town roads so those might be worth checking out sometime

let me know. i would be interested in going again.

Looking at the pic of my truck sideways where it landed on that hill, the hill looks like nothing, it looks like a small mound, but damn was that steep and slippery...
That other trail was a lot of fun, I don't have rock sliders but my frame seemed to do a good job of deflecting rocks, it was pretty rough, my skid plate is really showing some abuse now. But damn was it fun. Mike (jeep rubicon) said he still hasn't been able to get the huge grin off his face after that trail and he is eager to go again.
I have no idea how to post those vids unless you have a website to host it on, email them to me at intrepidse17@gmail.com so I can at least see them, if someone can host them that would be cool too.

Hey try hosting the video on here: http://www.putfile.com/

nice work on the video, I love the way something seems much more bad ass when you are doing it, and when you see a video of it it almost looks silly...I'll tell you what isn't silly, the amount of mud I got in my truck doing that with the windows down! To bad you didn't get the one of the straight rip through and up the hill on the other side that I did right after that.

you aren't kidding! i have a candid one of me and pat coming up to the beaver dam, where you did that sick mud pit show. we had no idea it was still on video from the previous mudpit, but you can see the ride, and hear the audio. it is kind of cool. however, i can't host it one the putfile site. the video is 12.5megs, and they only allow up 10megs/video. and i use gmail. it still isn't allowing me to send it though. kind of odd. oh well, you can have it now. better pics next time! i promise.
