FYI some trail conditions from when i went the 7th.
1.Viper is unpassable due to a huge tree being down at entrance. 2.Left Side of Powerline Cutoff has a downed tree blocking. 3.Middle Access is no longer a blue trail(aka level 3), now green(aka level 2) 4.Buck Pass is no longer a blue trail, now green, this was a nice trail now ruined by dozer work. Still fun if muddy though. 5.Thompson Trail has been renamed Twisted's Trail, not reflected on map. 6.Backdoor to the left of Brokefoot no longer a blue trail, now an orange level 4and has a nasty ledge thats dug out i couldnt make mid ways. 7.Too Easy no longer a blue trail, now orange very off camber at top. All you see is sky LOL 8.Timber rattler blue trail transitioning to a orange level 4. Still doable on 33s if you take the right lines though but it has gotten harder every trip i make there. 9. Goose hard on anything below 35s, underbody damage very likely. Every jeep in my group had to winch. Only trail i have EVER had to use a winch on thus far.

Viper is open we fixed that this last weekend. I went up goose twice and we got a rzr and a sami on 31's through it. The diamond back trails where a lot of fun. I really liked frame twister. Broke foot was fun but the top got harder as the weekend went. Maverick was good as well. I didn't try ghost rider and viper since the big boys were hammer down on them but is was real wet as well.

You would have walked it with your stickies and crazy crawl ratio!

I plan on doing Maverick again. I did it last time I was there with a set of 35" Grabbers and loved every minute of that trail. I'm anxious to see what the 37's will be like. I want to enjoy this weekend without having the worry of breaking on a trail. My intentions are to just go out and have fun and maybe late on Saturday go do some more difficult trails. Bobbie's LJ isn't equipped to do the tougher 4's and the 5's and we spent no time together on the trails at SMORR so I'd like to see what she can do in her rig.

And, the chicken breasts are marinating. The baked potatoes are precooked and wrapped in foil and in the fridge.
Post up what you're bringing for cooking out on Friday and/or Saturday night so we all know what to expect and if anyone needs to grab anything extra.
I'll update the first post.

See if you can find Jester. It's a short trail but will be great for Mrs. Bob

I want to go back when it is dryer and give them a try.

We'll bring some wings to throw on the grill one night & some pancake mix and sausages for breakfast one morning. How many should we be planning for? I can pick up plasticwear and plates too.

I plan on bringing some steak to grill and share along with chicken. I might cook up my world famous stuffed frulled poppers for yall. I will have plenty of strong drinks to share as always. I might grab a cake to bring and share as a late night snack from a local baker that makes some awesome cakes.
