Wow what a trip, over 50 rigs!! SOOOOOO happy we decided to go, met so many awesome people, had a great time, drank too much (or just enough!), got to shoot some guns, got rained on, played in the mud, good conversaton around the campfire, AMAZING FOOD and a TON of it, some carnage, some trail repairs (and some not), and eventhough the KJ could only handle the first .5 miles if the trail, we're very happy we gave it a try and proud we did what we could being the ONLY Liberty to make and attempt, but there's being crazy and then there's being stupid, we wised up and parked it. Maby after we get boulder bars, lockers, bumpers, a winch, an SFA conversion with an 8" lift and supersweampers we could really go for the whole trail, LOL!
We would have called this more a Rock Crawling Run then a Trail Ride but we learned a TON and from talking to lots of folks learned the trail has become MUCH harder compared to last year or early spring due to heavy rains in the area. This run is for HEAVILY modified rigs ONLY! and in the same class as pictures i have seen of lower terminator, I'de call it a 5.0 rating and for a Liberty it's simply not runable unless you have the SFA conversion. The area is beautiful and there is a side trail you can run to the 2 waterfalls and if you like watching rock crawelers and carnage, grab a rock and enjoy the show. great camping, ponderosa pines, fresh cool air and mud to play in.
too bad we forgot the camera!
