    6" ProComp lift on 35 MT's. ARB Bumper.
    There are bypasses for most of it. I took advantage of a couple of them. (Rocky Uphill) I was the only one who took the bypass, and met them all at the top. Only two made it to the top, one was jason with his sweet SAS'ed 1st gen, but I think both of them had to use the winch.

    I have sliders, and a spacer lift. After yesterday I can guarantee a new CO lift is on my christmas list!

    I ran the moderate stuff with AT's, and open diff, so my guess is you would do just fine up there!

    As soon as we left the gathering point, I hit a big rock on the main road and whacked my alignment. :mad: Great start to the day!

    Rocky uphil was the trail where during the summer run, I was the only one from our group silly enough to try going up... and I ended up turning around. They did change the top part around, but SAShimiTaco had a bit of a challenge and Tyler (Littlebro 5?) had to get at least 2 winchings. Might be something to try again in the summer, but the rest of us got halfway and decided it was going to take too long.


    All who are interested in the Currie Deflator:

    You will notice that the product is about $30, but the shipping averages $50! :eek:

    About the only way around this is buying local from 4wheelparts :mad: Maybe see if metaltech or wheeler's offroad can get them in stock for you to pick up?

    Too many choices. Government camp, Mary's Peak in Philomath, Scott's Mills, Detroit, the entire city of Klamath Falls or Keno... I just haven't had a really solid, successful run where I could enjoy myself. Either too much snow, not enough time, or we got in too technical :( I don't mind leading runs, but damn I'm a snow noob still.

    Mike, I remeber that trail. Is the upper part, just at the top and up the gravel road also rocky uphill? Or... a different one. Its the one we took up and around which put us at the enterence of rocky uphill.

    whatever, I consider the pics to be the upper part since you have to climb the video part to get to the picture part, which is another climb.

    Shoot, tryin' to be all smart and shit on me.

    We'll maybe this will help. We went up that trail in the vid. The hardcore group went down that trail. When they got to the gravel road they went left which leads to the top of the trail in the pic.

    When we made it to the top of the trail in the vid, we then cruised a dirt trail down which lead to the start of the trail in the vid. Which is the one you had to turn around on halfway up.


    Suck on that! :rofl:

    ok, one more try... here's the path we took this weekend.

    We started at the video part
    then you cross the main road
    and then do this part, where I turned around during the summer run. You can't see in the picture, but there's two 'lanes' at this section, this photo is taken of the left lane as you are looking uphill.

    IMG_0828_9d9c6ef128e99404404bfcf297cc23074e119943.jpg


    and finally you get to this part, which I was referring to as the 'top'. If the photos were taken at the same time, Anton would be smacking into Tyler in about 100 feet.
