THE HANGING TREE ~ WHO'S IN?

MR. KRYPTONITE · 2010-06-26 20:28:15

WOW! WHAT A GREAT DAY!

We ended up with a total of 6 rigs run the trail today. Its to bad you couldnt make it Steve. :cry: Gabe and Cory said that you were to big of a sissy to show up after you saw some pix and video.... :oops:

Anyway we had a great day! We learned something too! All I knew is that we were making it to the top this time..... and we did!

Carnage you ask? Not much really. A few center caps, tail lights, a few rigs onto there side, but we all made it! There was a good amount of water coming down this time which added to this trails excitement. :shock:

Our longest, and most tuff time of the day is when Gabe tore a valve stem on his Rhino and he did not have a spare tire or a spare valve stem. Infact not one of us had a .99cent valve stem! Not one! Lynn had a spare tire (polaris) but we could not break the bead on it. So, we pulled out the knife and cut a hole in the tire inorder to get the valve stem out. Yeah, I know, seems a bit much for a valve stem but we got back on the trail.

I want to thank those of you who made it down into my country for this ride! You all make the day even better!

Pictures and video soon to come!

MR. KRYPTONITE · 2010-06-26 20:30:43

Oh, yeah... and what did we learn you ask? Well I can promise you that next ride every single one of us that was on the trail today will have a spare valve stem in there tool bag. You should too!

Thanks, to Jared for guiding the "hanging tree" (SOB) trail today. How much farther was it to the top? I just got rocked out today. Made it back fine, how about the rest of you?
With all the cameras rolling cant wait to see the video that I know is forthcoming. If any of you got some good stills of the 4, let me know, I would like to get a copy on CD.
Thanks again, good group to go riding with.

You are very welcome! The top was about 200 yards or so. We all made it back fine. It was great seeing you again!

Fasttrax · 2010-06-26 22:06:51

I can't believe you made it back before 10 pm. :shock:

Who broke the tail light? I have a like new Polaris tail light

Fasttrax · 2010-06-26 22:08:31

How far did the rzr4 make it?

chournos · 2010-06-27 05:58:29

The RZR 4 stopped at the 20-30 foot water slide/fall. I could have made it up with the rest of the machines, just wasn't sure how much farther we had to go and had a 2 1/2 hour drive ahead of me. The 30's, with full UHMW and rock sliders were a must!

Awesome day, awesome group and awesome ride!! Although I came close to rolling at least 3 times, I would go back again!! Thanks Jared for putting the ride together and I am looking forward to the pictures and video's.

coreshot · 2010-06-27 16:06:39

Thanks for the good time guys, me Gabe and Hickey were spent by the time we got back to camp. No partying last night, dinner and straight to bed. 8)

I can't believe you made it back before 10 pm. :shock:
Who broke the tail light? I have a like new Polaris tail light

It the first time in my 3 visits to get off the trail in daylight, :shock: and that's with us running it in reverse to get back out. Gabe broke both taillights out of the rhino.

It must have been your guide this time that made the difference! lol

OR side x sides are just a lot better at rock crawling than jeeps and such! 8)
