Superstition Day Trip 3/9/13

I am hoping this gets funny... you got me laughing!

 

If it is, why is he only in 2WD?

 

I would have enjoyed going out there... where-ever it was! LOL

I love driving in sand:

 

Ya it was a blast!!! Nice trip. Ill get something together again soon.

 

Yeah, that was Doug. Most of the spots were 2wd friendly.

 

God Damn it! I wanted to go soo bad.

 

Sorry, to answer your question. It is superstition mtn. Sand dam is at the bottom of the further tower to the NW. It is also the very NW end of the sand in superstition if you google earth it. For those more familiar with it, there is a route in which you parallel "sand dam" heading SEish to get back on top. Thats were we were playing around. I gave you the more exact answer before instead of the generalized.

 

Still waiting for Leo to post the vid of my jump

 

I just got the truck detailed so..... I'm out for the rest of the month probably lol.

 

I have sand stuck in all the windows, it sucks when they go up and down.

 

i just got done cleaning the truck inside and out. I'm down for the month too

 

Thank you Gary!!!

I was guess that after I asked... My high school friends and I camped on top of Superstition (well in a valley on top) in 1976, and a sand storm hit... we were trapped in our vehicles for about 12 hours, wearing goggles and all covered up like a nomad in the Sahara, just to go take a leak. But going to and coming from was lots of sand... got stuck when high centered on a dune. Back then it was a Navy Testing area, and forbidden... We came there by driving south along the gypsum mine railroad from Split Mountain, then cutting across the desert to Superstition. Very memorable trip with about 6 friends I haven't seen in over 30 years! We went up in my Jeep Cherokee, a pickup, and my friend's dad's 4WD Suburban (in which we cooked our burgers to keep sand out of the food)...

 

Yeah, you were slinging it alright!

 

I use that excuse all the time when my friends want me drag wood to fiesta island when were gunna have a bonfire lol! "nope can't go, just tire shined my tires".

 

100% down for a trip out there late this month.

 

I wanna take the kids out again for the weekend. My son had fun, but was bummed without his quad.

 

I'll haul a quad to there for ya

 

If I thought he would keep up I would, hes only 5. LOL

Thats why I'm building a trailer.

 

Sooo is their going to be another trip planned??

 

I'd probably be down to go again on Sunday.
