11/17 Back way to Crown King day trip / possible 11/16 camping

I ended up sleeping in. I forgot to set the alarm

 

Good day, good trail, good group, good lunch.

I was busy being the tackle anything guy, so here are the 2 pics I snapped. Post 'em up.

Thanks Ryan it was good meeting you, and Mike too. You guys dominated the obstacles we went up, and I think Phil should have some good shots of you daring your way up that one part.

I'll post the few pics that I took soon.

Overall the trail seemed in really good shape. As we expected there were a good handful of spots that offered additional "challenges" if you chose to take them, some easier then others. A couple we all opted out of. There was definitely a little bit for everyone. The end of the trail was quite graded down, no crazzy final boulder to go over like we had heard it must have been removed. The trail was pretty heavily traveled, we had to find room to pull over and let ATVs and other vehicles pass a decent amount.

Pretty awesome how the scenery changed and before we knew it we were in CK driving right past The Mill which was really fun to visit. I personally think a stock 4x4 would be fine just should be a little careful in a couple spots - a 2wd with a little lift and offroad tires would probably be fine too. Definitely worth the trip if you haven't done it though. Took us about 5 hours to get all the way up, stopping for breaks, crawling along and working our way through the trickier routes we tried.

Thanks again guys

 

Phil to the rescue!

 

Here's what I got fellers. Good little run fo sho.

 

Schweeeet!

 

How difficult was this trail? I've never done it but it sounds like a good time!

 

Not difficult at all, andrew got his double through tight shit without lockers.... up the tuffer area's. Ryan just banged his way through the harder shit with lockers.

 

Had a great time..I have a few pictures I will try to upload..stupid phone acting up.

 

get them up Mike! BTW thanks again for buying the Pie mike. shit was delicious.

 

Looks like a good time, folks. Sorry I missed it.

 

x2 - and ^^^^^ those spots had bypasses

sooo goood - it was pretty funny when I got home; meg surprised me with "apple pie and icecream!" for dessert

It was no worries how are you man?? back home doing okay?

 

nice!

 

All of that had bypasses. There was one spot for sure (maybe a couple others) that would have been questionable in a stock 2wd. 4x4 and careful driving would be a piece of cake. The more mods and experience leads to trying and completing harder stuff. About 3/4 of the length of my right slider got USED.

Here is the GPS Track from highway to highway.

And get better Seabass

That first hit sounded more like frame than slider to me

 

Oh yes, but it just looks like spots, not all along the slider.

 

where at in aj are you?
im on meridian and university and im always looking for wheeling buddys that are close!!

 

Yes sir, got released at 5pm yesterday after the last CT scan. So far so good, no heart damage seen in the scans. Vessels all look good, too. Just gotta figure out what the pain was and why it made my arms numb and made me dizzy. Feeling good today though.

 

Hmmmm, need to update the locale. I moved from Mtn View/Broadway in AJ to 7th St/101 in N PHX.
