Table Mesa October 18, 2008
Meet on the west side of the I-17 and Table Mesa exit. Where the pavement ends and the dirt begins.
THERE ARE TWO, Meeting & Departure Times:
M&D #1: 8:00AM
M&D #2: 9:30AM
Both at the same place.
Jake will be here from Las Cruses and has to pick someone up at the airport at 8:30am that morning.
We will run the new trails Brian Westfall found last weekend.
These are the trails at Table Mesa that I know exactly where they are located (Jon recorded GPS cords for some)
Trail Name - Rating
Dirty Sanchez (GPS) - 4.0
Lower Terminator (we know where this is, GPS) 3.5
Anaconda (sidewash of Lower Terminator) 4.5
Judgement Day (starts from the wash between Lower Terminator and Upper Terminator) 3.5
Predator (GPS) 3.5

*Meeting area*
There is a dirt lot on the left side where pavement turns dirt. That is the place to meet.
Lower and Upper Terminator have bypasses on everything while some of the other trails are much more difficult. We will see who shows up and try to accommodate everyone.
32" tires, at least one full locker and tow points F/R are minimum!

Yeah I have the GPS coordinates : having trouble getting them out to email. Evidently I need to reload Mapsource. Too many brews tonight for that. But "its in there".
I'd love to run some other tires for this one. My ATs are getting all chewed up. Or maybe someone wouldn't mind just draggin my 4Anchor along behind them?

You just need non-AT 35" tires. Many 3rd Gen have run Lower Terminator on 285's and 315's. All MT/R's or BFG Muds. IFS is fine. Click Below

Joe even took the Lemon through there. The old Slee FJ80.

Tall, narrow, better mileage and less cutting on the 4runnerLink to some info about the tires - http://forum.ih8mud.com/camping-gear...kinny-35s.html

You will if you don't show up before 8AM to run a warm up trail or two, then we will run back to the airdown and meet anyone that shows up at the later time.

Bummer, I was hoping to see you there.
sschaefer3,westy44runner:
It looks like it’s going to be hot up there this weekend; high 93 in New River. What trails are you going to sneak in with the early group? Don’t let me stop you from the Annihilator before I show up.

Hi 88°F
Annihilator would put an end to my day (probably even year) of 4wheeling...so I will watch everyone else
I dont know what trails we will run early. That will depend on who shows up.

Get to work!! Hope to see you at TM - give me a shout I will have an open seat and others should as well. I can't remember but I think Jon was talking about riding along as well but I could just mount a folding lawn chair on my flatbed for him.
