Wind Rock Wheeling Trip 11/6-11/8

All that's going to be going through my head as I'm (trying to) following the crazies.



I think I got this as a patch too but I can't remember for sure. If not I've definitely seen one.

 

I think there are some interesting fins getting up into there. I would love to do it, just as Skip said, not sure how the DCLB's will fair to get up there. We will have 2 trail limo's.

Says the guy who converted his 4 cyl Prerunner to fully locked 4wd.

 

We will have to schedule another trip there soon and we can all go see if we can do it.
It reminds me of the entrance to Hell's Revenge, the way is slopes off on each side but with a few obstacles lol.

 

True, lol.
With all those mods I would have to see just how far I could push them.

 

In time Jeff lol. Im just trying to enjoy the truck now without having it back in the shop lol.

Just tired of working on it and not getting to use it.

 

Lol, its coming, you keep pushing a little harder each time.

 

Jeff going to talk you out of riding with the crazy people now that's funny right there

I'm definitely there. But there is a big caveat is the level of experience in recovery or dealing with situations that can turn really bad really quickly. That is a very tough trail a long way to get there and only one way in and one way out. There are no bypasses there is not another way other than backing up from the approach and going back to the road. You are fully committed in doing it if you get up onto the ridge no turning back after getting onto the ridge.

 

We never require or peer pressure anyone into following us it's always your discretion. I will never take someone on something that their truck cannot handle. That being said I will get you started on trails to get your feet wet and some confidence then slowly put you on harder and harder obstacles to show you how capable the truck really is. I have taken many a greenhorns all over URE in one day and at the beginning they are extremely nervous by the end they have done some of the hardest trails there and have tons of confidence and are amazed at what the truck will do. The key is to listen and take the advice of the experienced ones and not psych yourself out. There is a reason why my truck is looking the way it is and it was completely by my choice in the trails and what I wanted to do, never pressured from anyone. If there is something I see that someone isn't ready or aren't capable of making I'll suggest they take a different line or route.

 

I'm down boys. I know that you Justin and I would be prepared for that trail Brian, but the rest of the group I'm not sure they are ready to even put tires on the entrance. Let's plan a trip and take these behemoths up it Brian!

 

If you're concerned, no stress - you got this.

Listen to your spotters.

Accept all help you get.

You got this!


I wish I could join y'all, but I'll be down in Savannah this weekend. Windrock is awesome so y'all have extra fun for me!!!

 

Damn, that's crazy! That Jeep on that last rock leaned to the right, would be a shit your pants moment!

 

making stops along the way CO, UT, Az etc..?
I’d be down never been west of Tennessee and there is some cool shit to see out there.

 

Give me a spot and a beer and I’ll do Walden’s Ridge

 

^^^this dude drug me all over URE and I can attest I was nervous af going into it, all but screaming keep me off the hard shit.. he wouldn’t tell me trail names until after we finished lmao..” oh by the way that was Dutch, back of Daniel etc.“

 

Fordyce is not for the light of heart go watch a couple videos it's literally 2k miles away it's a turn and burn trip there and back

FIFY

If I would of told you, your nerves would of gotten the best of you and your mind would of siked you out of the trucks and your abilities. People hype those trails up so much as how hard they are and stuff and then it puts these pre conceived notions into your mind about breaking how hard they are etc. that puts doubt and then fear which is the enemy to conquering things you aren't comfortable with.

 

You just motivated the shit outta me

 

You going Drew?

 

It’s a haul!! I know that, something like that I’d damn near be down to do everything I could on the way there and shotgun/Full
Time cameraman it through the hard parts just for the experience.



it’s not all it’s cracked up to be that’s for sure. I didn’t get to see front side on Daniel from the bottom but from the top it looked pretty gnarly. Plus those crappy A/T’s had me nervous from the start

 

Trying to swing it

 

I'm pumped fellas it'll be good to have the relaxation after today!!!! That and tomorrow is my Friday
