I was looking to do a run Nov. 7 the day before my b-day. Two kids from work are looking to come in their stock wranglers.
What would be a good stocker trail that wouldnt be too bad in the winter?
Anyone else interested?

depends on the snow but Seven mile isn't too bad in the winter. Did it early this year, had a ball.

Ok sweet. Anyone else have some ideas?
 






if i can pick up a spare tire and some other equipment i might be down to hit the trails.
 






Sweet!
 






Was thinking maybe Bunce Bchool still debating. Who else would want to go?
Posted on RMFTC too.
 












yeah i know, i should be able to handle that trail. i just gotta get that spare tire and get some things welded up and maybe put the stock rims back on. ive never had her up in the mountains so im kinda apprehensive about that.
 






If I can get everything put back together by this weekend I would be game. It would be a good trail for a shakedown run of my newest mods.:troops:
 






OK so if anyone from here is going we are meeting at the Albertsons on N. College at noon, CB channel 14.
 






didnt finish my truck til this afternoon. oh well maybe next time
 






any updates on how the run went? wish i could have made it. still have some parts that need welding before i hit any trails.
 






Run was good, It ended up being AccordRanger, Myself, and a Toyota... So with only three of us we ran up there and blitzed the trail real quick, only thing to mention really was that where the creek crosses the trail in one part it freezes and as I am driving along I pass it, and then I hear a bunch of cracks and noises. Look back and see AccordRanger's explorer sitting with the driver side tires in air and passenger side tires went there the ice. Even that though wasn't bad
 






Yea i got stuck pretty good, almost made it the second time.:D
 






Here are some pics, my phone wont let me upload any others right now.

Still trying to get the rest
 






man, thats some nasty ice. looks like fun guys. hopefully i'll be ready to make the next run. i have some front tow hooks on order and a winch on order too. we'll see what this IRS can do!!
 






Sweet! I went and picked up some expedition hooks friday. Now need to fab up a way to mount the so they clear my bumper.

Also trying to get my friend to take his first gen up there, doesnt believe me that its easy.
Will post up if i can get him to go and see who else is up.:D
