April 4, 2009: White Tanks

8:30 sounds good.Airdown spot is easy to find.From I-10, exit Watson rd. head north from freeway.Asphalt ends after 1/4 mile,continue north on dirt rd until it bends to the right,We will be parked there.my # is 623-252-8260 if any one wants to call.Are you gonna make it?

Who will be there?

 

Looking forward to it!

 

If I have my spacers in by then I'll be there.

 

Alright guys I'm once again new to Arizona and I'm trying to become more active in the wheeling community. I have a '98 4runner, OME suspension, 1" BL, 33" swampers other than that the vehicle is stock.

I'm not looking to tear up my 4runner as she's my daily driver. Is this a run I can make with a fairly stock vehicle without doing damage to her?

Looking forward to meeting some of you eventually.

Brian

EDITED: Nevermind, I just saw the difficulty ratings in the rus schedule listed in previous thread. Thanks!

 

You can always ride along with someone. Just ask if anyone will have an open seat. I think cruiserjim and war rated both have open seats the last time I talked to them.

 

Thanks Worm,

I look forward to becoming more active on here.

 

Welcome to Arizona, where the on-line 4Runner world and the real 4Runner world take different paths.

 

Nice...

 

+1

You all have a good week.

 

We can have more "everybody" runs, but no one wanted to attend. This is a rock buggy trip, but Grady will be fine, he knows what to do and not to do.

 

Steve...does your run schedule go through May?

 

May 2: Pyeatt Draw

May 16: Sedona (Everyone) -OR- Table Mesa Again

 

SSSHHHHHHH!!!!! Don't tell him about the token Rover until he's been sucked in and has no other choice for people to wheel with!

And besides, the only reason I don't do those other obstacles is that you Yota guys' trucks aren't strong enough to pull out the Big Red Anchor if it gets stuck again!

And to think of it... I'd like to bet that I am prolly the only Rover here on the Yota boards. How's that for ballsy?

 

You thinking about coming down for one? Better hurry up, it already starting to warm up.

 

wow seen some pics of the trail. doesnt look that bad but then again pics never do its justice. cool. mr kent said i can jump in with him so im planning on being there.

 

I would like to...how bad is May? Since we aren't going to Moab, I need to do something with you guys. Probably riding with someone but I don't care.

I need to call Steve so he can chew me out about always wanting to come down when it's warming up or hot.

 

Ya, May isn't the best month to be visiting. Somewhere around 100. Better than June-Sept though.

The Pyeatt Draw run is up near Payson, which is quite a bit cooler. Table Mesa is just north of PHX, not any cooler.

 

Maybe I'll wait. I figured if you had a run planned then the temps wouldn't be too bad. That's why I asked if anything was planned.

Sorry for the hijack Steve.

 

I heard Maricopa County are closing allot of White Tanks area this weekend due to Blowing Dust, hopefully that doesn't run into next weekend too!

 

The area may be closed. We are looking into it.

Suggestions for a backup run?

H2H?
