Raush Creek

Whens the next time a group may be heading here? I have a friend who picked up a Raptor a little while back, and he'd like to see what its capable of. I'd also like to play a little, even though my truck is still stock (sticking to easy trails, of course). I'll have to get started on some of those cheep/free mods.

 

i'm down to go almost any weekend given enough notice. your buddy is going to scratch the hell out of that raptor though...they're 7 in wider than a stock F150.

 

Yeah, I realize the Raptor won't be in its desired habitat, but it could still be fun. The Raptor is is DD; I think he'd be more upset about a scratch on his Shelby Super Snake, but not so much on his Raptor.

 

if he ran greens he'd probably be fine. i'm trying to go again this summer and if not definitely in the fall. someone should start up a thread for when the best time for everyone is (im lazy).

 

Lets do it here!

What date works best for everyone? Ideally I'm aiming for a Saturday or Sunday, and sometime before the 8th (Can't do the 8th).

 

i'd be down for some runs on greens unless i get my truck lifted before than

 

just got back yesterday for the NE toyota takeover at Rausch. I'd prolly be up for going again in a month or so.

 

This should be entertaining.

 

I've never been up there yet , but a friend of mine also said he wants to go up there with some guy he drags with, so hopefully i'll make it up there one way or another

 

I don't know that Rausch will show what a Raptor is capable of. Most of the tougher trails are pretty tight, so the Ford might not fit. It could stay on the greens though without issue, hardly a challenge.

 

from my understanding of their trail rating system anything our trucks with lockers should be able to take most all greens and the easier blues , well probably except mine , im pretty sure my bald ass fails won't get me far, but thats why i carry recovery equipment, and i can get a friend to bring his lifted 1500 crew cabl long box, if that fits im sure the raptor will

 

Blues with no lift not a good idea.

 

I'll keep that in mind, im not used to the color rating system

 

Some of the greens should be blues and some of the blues should be black. They have a terrible map and trail rating system.

 

Have you been up there this year Joe? The trails are in bad shape after last winters snow, big ruts everywhere.

 

No. I can only imagine how bad the rating system is now.

 

I'd be down to make the trip there, but I wheel an older pathfinder, not my brand new taco I haven't been in a year or so, have they expanded on their map and added any new trails?

 

Yikes! Haha.. Well, I'm still down to do the green's in my stock truck. If I could sell my damn Mustang, I could probably spare some money on a lift and tires.

Is anyone interested in going sometime soon? I see a few saying they'd go in a month.

 

they added a whole new area across the street. 1200 more acres or something like that.
