NE area wheeling trip plans

Man 3 Bears is a lot further than I wish it was, almost 4 hours door to door. That just might not be doable at this point with the newborn. What about MA Bell?

 

Both are 2 hours for me, i can do that weekend, and my truck is going on neither trail

I could go for moral support.

 

It's worth going. Normally a trip out there is about 4 to 6 hours on dirt

 

Hes been there, he pulled matt out if the suez canal

 

Yeah it’s definitely worth the trip, just don’t know if I can pull off that far of a trip right now with the newborn making planning tricky

 

3 bears might not be in the cards, haven't seen anything saying the trails are open again

 

True, I assumed mid July we would be good

 

If it keeps raining the way it has been...

 

Ross didn't so VW hill because of the Suez. Has @Roody been up to VW prior?

We could plan the day with the location TBD day of for me it's about two hours for either, if we do 3 bears I'd prefer Saturday so that we aren't leaving and heading down highways on a Sunday afternoon.

 

We didn’t make it to VW, the bumper debacle derailed things lol

I say let’s just block the day and where we end up can be tbd.

 

I’d be down for a Mabell trip assuming I have new frame horns. Gotta mess around there not just an up and down

 

Yeah I mean the nice thing about going there is we can spend some time messing around and not just trying to get through

 

Idk ME quad and SXS trails opened the weekend after memorial day, which they normally open on memorial day

 

I think we will be fine for mid July, if we wanted to go there.

 

I haven't been in ages, this gets my vote

 

MA Bell would certainly be easier for me (i.e., doable)

 

I truly understand both arguments whether we choose to go to Three bears or choose to go to Ma Bell...... I continue to Revert back to the same argument which is The overall pros and cons of each:

three bears:
Pros: highly technical, takes the whole day (So it makes the entire day about Wheeling), possible chance for vw Hill, Sketchy bridge, Excellent barbecue place afterwards
Cons: It's all the way up in Weare, NH

MA bell:
Pros: Is highly technical, chance to finally get your and use your winch, closer to everyone (More centralized) great wings afterwards.
Cons: Only takes about a half an hour up and a half an hour down (So what makes the entire day about a couple of obstacles), Have to be highly modified now with the go arounds closed off

I'm just going to put this out here and it may not be a popular statement but If the three bears and Ma Bell were technically right next to each other We would all be choosing to do the three bears..... am I wrong in this statement?

 

Never been to three bears. Im tentatively busy weekend of July 12-13, but if not Ill tag along

 

You hit the nail on the head

If you guys want to do Three Bears go for it... unfortunately that would likely render me a no-go for this one... just too far to swing a day that long/far leaving my wife alone solo with a 3 month old and 3 y/o

 

OFR?
