And the old school (looking) cj5 makes it through unscathed - something to ponder there ;0) Chris' rig is sure looking good - as well it should, he's been building on that thing for years - looks to work well. Looks like a long day also - whereabouts guy?

yeah what a fun day, was awesome to see some old terrain from a while back. Ds9 was logged and smoothed over by blastrock but oddly enough it was the closest I got to rolling over when I didnt see a water bar coming up while we were heading down an offcambered hill  Canopener had been washed out really good, thats where slim ran into probs with his spare tire carrier tearing away from his jeep due to a tree laying across the trail above the side banks, he just couldnt quite sneak his way under it.....haha. Sure is a good trail to test out suspension and sidewalls, without lockers would be brutal. Granite dunes is just plain out awesome, the most fun I have had on any trail in a very long time, tons of slick long rock climbs and banked out sections with boulders and stumps to get you tipped over enough to grin from ear to ear Up for a run Chet?  |

Very cool SLim! Nice to see some of the old trails being run. which way did you go in? yes the trails are Very very over grown with branches ,, alot of the time couldnt even see a trail throw all the branchs on the windshield ,... including the one that busted the windshield, it was for sure tight in the big rig and being the tallest out there ..even the extra 1 inch taller made it alot tighter .. I will post up some more pics from home tonight |
