Trail Run - Turkey Creek 5/17

If you want to add some dirt miles instead.. you can jump off at Black Canyon, and take Maggie Mine all the way to the Bumblebee exit. Have done it many times throughout the years going up to visit family and there's an accident on the 17.

 

I was just looking at that way this morning. Thanks for confirming that's a good route.

 

This might be what I'll do. It looks like back tracking from Sunset Point adds another 15-20 minutes anyway. Apparently Google Maps doesn't like backtracking because it's suggesting I take the 3.5 hour back route via the 87

 

Want to meet up around Carefree Highway in the morning? Could meet at the McDonald's then drive to the trail.

 

Works for me. What time you thinking? I'm up at 4 even on the weekends so it's a waiting game for me either way.

 

8am at the McDonald's Here

 

Aw shit, I totally forgot to ask if this would be something my "stock" rig could handle.

I guess no matter now, the housemate brought some kind of bug back from work and I haven't eaten naught but pedialyte today.

 

Nothing good happens at 4am, especially at McDonald’s…

 

That sucks, hope you feel better soon!

 

Well… Did you guys see any turkeys??

 

Didn't see any turkey's or creeks, but we had a good time anyways. Per usual I didn't take too many pictures.

 

Almost forgot to congratulate you on finishing off school and graduating. That was for your Masters correct?

 

Thanks man!! Yup, MS in Supply Chain Management from University of San Diego.

It was a tremendous experience but boy am I glad to be done!

Crazy, I just tallied it up and my employer paid over $51k to the school on my behalf, unbelievable that I’m coming out of this debt free

 

It's going to be quiet in here for a while. The truck is going under the knife to 3 link the rear. We'll get something planned once it's all wrapped up.

Untill then

 

Too hot to leave the house anyways!

In the meantime I’ll be in the garage playing with my new toy!

 

OMG... It's beautiful!

 

I need practice so hit me up with your simple bending needs (as long as it’s 1.5”…)

 

You need a 1.75" die also. Probably the most common size for bumpers, sliders, and such.

 

Agreed, it’s on the wishlist. I got it used for dirt cheap and that’s what it came with. Decided to buy the air/hydraulic kit first since I couldn’t imagine the HOA (or Amber…) being cool with a new little concrete pad in the yard, LOL!
