JeepAndrew's AZ Trail Runs/Campouts

Aaron and I won't be able to camp again until after December 15th roughly because of finals. But we would love to! Aaron got to do box in his truck, I'd love to run it in mine too!

 

This is all Myth to the best of my knowledge, but the land around Coke ovens is private and "closed". The trail is supposed to be fenced preventing people from accessing the area but the fence is almost never in place and has been removed on countless occasions.

The story is basically this: there used to be an old man that lived out on the homestead out there and managed the land. when he died it only took a matter of week for the house to have all its windows broken, things stolen and trash just dumped all over the place. His daughter who lives somewhere back east "closed" the trail to public access after a couple instances of graffiti on the ovens and the condition of the homestead.

Being as popular as the trail is people still frequent the area all the time. A good rule of thumb if you are caught out there is to always do a little extra, bring some trash bags and pick up a little extra trash and play dumb if confronted. There have been a few instances of the family allowing access to the land to clubs for events and what not but they are very hard to get in contact with and mostly will ignore any requests. I've spoken with her in the past but don't know if i still have her contact info

 

No video of the fun that went down. Josh you what i'm talking about.

 

Forgot to show you guys this. I'm not sure if this happened before or during rug road, but I need to fix it haha

 

Those aren't torqued very high. Mine were loose when I still had Toytecs. Call Toytec and they should be able to send you a nut very easily.

 

We were going to get a new bolt and washer as well. We're assuming the threads on the bolt have been damaged and we lost the washer too.

 

I'm down! Although.. I would really like to try the Box Canyon in Wickenburg as well. Lydia says its really awesome and she used to take her Ranger down in there. sandy washes, large canyon walls, water, etc.

awwww i didnt know it could be changed from thread to thread.. regardless.. idc. lol

soooo I went to mount my Gopro on Q's trailer to get some sweet footage on the way in (would of been awesome too to catch that one water crossing where I almost lost the trailer lol) and then realized I didnt have a micro SD card for it..

 

I'm still building a rather large video with photos and gopro footage from the weekend. Should be done soon

 

Sam and I would probably be down for the Box Canyon in Wickenburg. That's over on our side of town.

 

I gotta get with Lyd for her footage. she got some good stuff as well. probably post the rest later tonight in here.

Hell yeah! lets do it.

 

It'll have to wait til after school though. My next few weeks are going to be crazy.


I'll get on the footage I have and see what I can come up with.

 

not a problem. gonna be busy for everyone these next couple months anyways. I'm down for a run/camp trip after the first of the year out there.

 

I should be down for a trip after the new year!

 

HOLY SHIT!! Looks like I missed a crazy ass weekend

 

I missed It too. Now im just sitting here waiting for tge videos

 

Link?

 

Its a challenge when you get a new truck to do as many mods as possible before you get your permanent plate

 

Oh, ok. I may not win in this challenge. All depends on what the insurance gives me.

 

Well andrew made a pretty damn big challenge but he was stock piling parts for a year before he bought

 

I left the dealer with my plates from my 08 Tacoma
