Peacock Flats camp/meet

Bummer man. Hope you heal up quick and can make it! If not, there will be more trips up there
What happened?

 

I was trying to lower a hummer trailer and the stand release lever malfunctioned dropping the trailer on me. It pinned my arm between the frame and stand and some how in the process of that I slammed or twisted my ankle, breaking it.

 

Ouch hope for speed recovery especially so close to the holidays.

 

That sounds serious man. Won't be the same without you buddy.

 

sorry about the injuries. happy to hear it wasn't more serious...sounds like it could have been worse.

 

Well mike, I guess you're gonna have to hit the trails with Ratha. I don't have sliders yet and Ratha charges hard. I'm not that hardcore

 

I guess I could

just hope I won't need 4wd, I don't think i'll have it in by then.

 

Wow.. That sucks.. hoe you heal fast!!!

 

I haven't been called a hoe in a long time.

Thanks guys!!! The doc said if I keep my weight off my ankle is should heal really fast since the bones didn't shift out of place. I'll find out for sure how I'm healing Tuesday when I go back for my check up and re-evaluation.

 

Since I'm stuck at home I decided to put some video of peacock flats on youtube. sorry for the quality, not sure how i can make it better.

Damn! now those are the trails I want to see!
...when I get my sliders

 

I've got one moe to upload.

 

Does DLNR ever go up there? Or is that okay to drive up?

 

As far as I know, they are old roads they don't maintain anymore so it's OK to drive up them. I have never seen DLNR on a trail, only the maintained roads.

 

Last one.

There is one more trail called Donkey Trail that we didn't hit that day.

 

Those are the kind of trails I want to hit. Cant wait for sliders!!!
the 14th is getting close tho. Hopefully the weather is nice for camping!

 

Im definitely down. Wont be able to camp though, gotta work Sunday.

 

Well, you can go but it could be an expensive trip. I've done it and seen many do it without damage, but there is always that one time that things don't go the way they should.

 

I'm not sure how to get a pass to enter. I only have applied for camping permits. Might have to search it. I know there was a link in another thread. Hope you make it out. Just driving up to the campground on either the main road or lower road is pretty fun.

Nah, not gonna risk it without sliders. This is my daily driver...
Wouldn't be too bad if I still had my supermoto as a backup to get to work. How are you healing up?

 

You can either mail the printout in or take it to either location on the permit and get it printed out right there.

I'm doing good so far. I got a boot for my ankle instead of a cast. It seems like my fiance is willing to wheel my 4runner too.
