3 weekends in row.....shut the front door

So, three weekends in a row wheeling and no breakage. Mind you I'm not running bunny trails either so that makes me all the more pleased.

Trails I don't really care for after three weekends at HP

The far end of Lucky's-Why? do you ask. There is far too much continuous off camber stuff. I don't like that crap one damn bit. I remember riding this section 7 years ago. I still hate it

Sidewinder-Same as above, there is a section of off camber there that I simply don't like. I can recall the ex driving our 2 door JK Rubicon on that trail and nearly rolling it. I dislike it just as much in the ftoy.

Hangover-Not the slab, that was a piece of cake....I'm talking about the trail off to the right when you are facing the slab. Once again, some serious off camber stuff. I honestly don't know how I kept it from laying over on the passenger side last weekend. The driver side tires were not touching the ground at one point, it was teetering precariously. I managed to get past this point upright much to the pleasure of my passenger who was quite terrified.

Part of Hardline-I REALLY like where Hardline starts to the right off of Lucky's all the way to the big slab with the bypass. Once you negotiate the slab I'd just assume turning left and going back over to Lucky's. If you go right there is a ledge/hill you go up and some more.......you guessed it....off camber crap. I made it up the ledge/hill but it took some skinny pedal and a bit of a running start.

Uphill Both Ways-Several off camber spots that made me uncomfortable on this as well. Two guys in last weekends group talked to a group of JKU's who said they were going to run UBW. Good luck with that. There is a giant boulder if you start at the Big Hill entrance that I had to pivot on to make the turn, it's tight. You really cant go left because of more boulders/rock wall that will lay you over. My wb is 117-118". I want to see a pretty JKU make that spot unscathed. What are they, 105" wb?

The hardest I had to work this weekend was on Frame Twister. I laid it on the driver side here. Again, I was able to cut the wheel hard driver and back up and it righted itself just like last weekend on Upper Ditch (which I laid it on the driver side again yesterday in the exact same spot) There are a couple of enormous rocks that gave me some trouble. Tried a few different approaches until I got it right. Not sure a full bodied rig is doing that spot with taking serious damage and there really is no bypass for this spot


So yeah, I don't like endless off camber crap, maybe when I can afford to 4 link it front and rear and get some ORI's I'll be all about some off camber, until then, no thanks. I'll take all the rest of the nasties with a smile. Me and my co-worker wheeled solo yesterday. Started at 9:00, was loaded and leaving by 2:00. We ran the following in 5 hours:

Maverick
Goose
Ghost Rider
All the Diamondbacks
Frame Twister
Viper
21
Waterfall
Don't tell Mark
Lower K5
Upper K5
Backdoor
Brokefoot
Whatever that is if you turn right before the end of Brokefoot
Hangover slab
Cherokee
Lucky's loop
Hardline
Lower Ditch
Upper Ditch
Merlin - the only point where we caught up to any other rigs. A jeep on what looked like 33's with a young girl driving and possibly dad spotting and a sammy on maybe 33's as well. Same spotter. This was near the end and they were struggling. I just shut it off and waited.


Never wheeled 3 weekends in a row, must say it was awesome to do so

I don't mind leaning up against whatever now that body damage is out of the picture.

A 2 door JK on 35s can make it through UBW without hitting anything. Takes a little time though.
