    you have a lift and bigger tires? if you have those two things you could do quite a few good trails like Seven Mile Rim, Top of The World and more.

    Getting lift and other mods installed tomorrow, should have 33s by the summer. I'll be able to do some fun stuff if i decide its worth going late.
    I hope you all have another wyo meet next year, I should be able to make it this time. Either that or there is a co expo trip in the works too!

    ill have to look that up! would love to do a CO trip.

    and yes we are already planning for a WY meet. Gonna be a big one with some pretty nice trails. 4 at least. Two in the Beartooths and then the same two in lander or more in lander we did this year. Will be about a week long trip! so keep your eyes open for that.

    If you have 33s you can do a lot at moab.

    I went last year with just 33's and a lift. I couldn't do everything but I could do enough to still have fun, plus just hanging with the guys after the trails is great too.

    We got you Travis, you'll be fine. Get sliders before the skids. They will sav you many more times over than skids will. If Ben, Rockgecko03, had sliders he woul have been more than ok.

    Both! KC was the most difficult of them all, and required some good lines and spotting. ATRAC is way under rated IMO, gets the job done! Like I mentioned in the report, the jeeps were talking shit, but just shrugged it off and used careful line choice and patience.
