    haha, I saw that same mud flap on MJT when I ran it a couple weeks ago. Close to the top of the trail yeah?

    MJT itself is a pretty short trail but has a few really tough spots. I assume you did Lockwood Canyon trail as well? That one is fun too, some tricky spots along it as well.

    Nah, this one was right by the "start" of Lockwood, like 20yds up from the big clearing where it hits Yellow Jacket. Sounds like you found its partner.

    We ran Lockwood -> Miller the fun uphill way. Except for the one rock in the video above (same on that's in everyone's youtube videos of Miller) it was straightforward and didn't require spotting. No problems with 33s, 'cept for that one rock, and I probably could have avoided the slider/skid hit with a slightly better line. Patrick was on <=31s or something like that, and scraped skids and LCAs a bit, but came out with a giant grin at the end. So, definitely fun, scenic and recommended, and probably make-able at stock height using a little armor.

    MJT will definitely make you want to up your skid plate game, lol

    First time I did MJT, I got talked into doing it by someone that had only done it on a dirt bike and convinced me that my completely stock 04 (with only a tcase skid) could do it. I somehow survived without any damage except I came down on that tcase skid HARD toward the end of the trail and would've been stranded had it not been for that skid plate.

    Since then I've beat the crap out of my front skid and sliders on that trail, it's a good one for people to get their feet wet on a black diamond 4x4 trail but armor is certainly recomended. Glad you guys had fun out there, I might try to hit it up one more time this month before they close it for the winter. It gets closed late Nov thru April due to snow.
