... or maybe "depending on the skill and patience of the driver "

I think the section is difficult, and wouldn't have guessed Jon to make it through so well. There really wasn't much aggression in his successful style either. Just good sawing of the steering wheel and wise line selection.

By the way, if one of the routes Westy and I have found actually works, Log Corral will most likely be run backwards towards 87... which makes the rock garden much easier, but not simple.

There even appears to be a route that would bypass the rock garden completely and heads back south... but that might no be passable at this point.

 

I try to keep the pimping to a minimum, but yeah, SAW's OME's and every other front end to try that rock garden at the start blew axles up.

 

Does that qualify me for sponsorship?

 

Cool. I expect to attend. Too bad about Jim.

 

im going to make this one. i get paid that week so expect to see me and my muddy truck there.

 

Also, finally got my LCE exhaust on. It's got a big FAT chrome tip on it that hangs down pretty low and has carnage written all over. We ought to put a stopwatch on it or something to see how long it lasts.

 

uhmmmmm... bling carnage.... very yummy.

 

Awesome, it looks like a good turnout!

 

 

Sorry guys, I won't make this one.

I will try to make another run soon.

 

Well the whole "600 miles plus away" thing makes for a pretty good excuse.

See you next time... and maybe in that incredible F-Toy you are building.

 

Feb. 16 - Table Mesa: This has been cancelled, trip leader has other obligations. It will be rescheduled to a later date.

 

What are the details for Minors revenge? Difficulty? This is the next one I'll be able to make since I'll be out of the continental US for a couple weeks.

 

What all can you guys tell me about the runs on the Feb. 23 and March 22? I wanting to get out of Yuma more this year and wheel with you all more since the last offical run I did with guys was Sunflower last year. I'm looking to come up for these runs



I'll be up to Sedona again the second week of June. To run some trails again.

 

The Edwards Park trail is a mild trail. 4x4, rock sliders and a rear locker would be more than enough. It is located close to 4 Peaks. I believe the trail is listed in the AZ Backcountry Adventures book too.

Crown King is similiar in difficulty to Edwards Park. Desoto Mine is a step up from the above listed trails. It is definitely doable though in a 4runner with locker and sliders, good driving and spotting always help alot too!

 

You have a PM.

 

Thank you, sir!

 

It would be best if you picked up a Warn M8000 for that new front bumper of yours. Otherwise someone will have to flip around and pull you up.

They are not that expensive, you can find them online with free shipping. M8000 is all you will need, actually more than you will need.

 

If the Moab dates change for any reason let me know. I just got confirmation I have the time off for the dates already posted.

Steve...make sure my seat is ready. I don't think my IFS can keep up with the AZ buggies.

 

So far there is only one buggy, but a lot more beater old trucks. You can resume your old position.
