It was a pretty cool trail ride yesterday. We ended up with about
30 Jeeps, toyota and ford trucks. We split into about 3
groups.
I was near the end. Two uphill areas became what we called uphill
luge runs. It was a real test of driver skill and ability. One guy
slid back down with just his spare tire on the back bumper leaning
against a tree keeping him from tipping over.
The waterfall was closed due to ice build up. The other obstacles
were all tested by the braver and/or modified among us but there were go-arounds for the not so brave.
Why is it called, Carnage canyon? There was some carnage. In
the "Squeeze," I lost the front driver side fender flare going up
and the passenger rear flender flare going down. Not much as they
are designed to come off in a crunch. One Bronco caught his read
pumpkin on a rock and drained his diff all over. He was able to
attain a partial seal and limp back to town. One guy lsot a bolt on
a heim joint and had to limp back to town, One Ranger busted his
driver side rear light assembly and got some trail pin-striping in
the same area. There were several bent idler arms and some steering
assembly problems.
It was a great group of people and a fun time. You can imagine that
with 30 vehicles there was some hurry up and wait, but that was to
be expected.
And... Since I installed the Extreme Flow OBA - I was a popular guy at the end of the trail...
Pictures?
The air down.
Strating the trail ride.
