Whitetanks 4.0 run on 12/10

[Skii4x4]

I want to do a trail I did a week ago. It is a big long boulder field that climbs. Many diff grabbers. 33s and F + R locker are a must. You need tow points and should have good body protection.

We can meet at I-10 and Watson right right where the dirt road ends at 9 am. Any questions let me know.

Is this Landslide?

[Skii4x4]

I dont know the name. Right when you drop into the wash to go to TC/firebird/ruler, its on the left. Its not too far off the dirt road. I would like to know the name but I dont.

Sounds like you're talking about Landslide. Basically a long boulder field.

[Skii4x4]

Yeah sounds about right. It was fun a lot of diff grabbers. Anyone want to come with.

[DesertX04]

I'll be in Cali Saturday, but if I can get a flight back early enough in the evening, I'll make it. If so, I'll post up Saturday night.

[arlo]

I think I can.....Then after, I'm off to the sand expo.:D

[Skii4x4]

I think I can.....Then after, I'm off to the sand expo.:D

Yeah I was thinking about going to that also but I really need to wheel. I start to get itchy if I dont wheel for long enough :D

[michale r varne]

Are you talking about the trail I ran with you last week that none of us had been on?

[Skii4x4]

yeah

[michale r varne]

Ya.....I'll pass on that one.

[DesertX04]

Ya.....I'll pass on that one.

Why are you passing on that one?

Where exactly does the dirt road end? I assume after the pavement ends, then just keep driving and I'll notice? Is it a ways back?

[Wildcat455]

Mind if I tag along?

[Lifes A Jeep]

I'm thinking about coming along but was curious...how does this trail compare to Ruler?

The pavement ends about a 1/4 mile north from the intersection of I-10 and watson

[Skii4x4]

Sure come with. It shouldnt be a much challenge for your buggy

[Skii4x4]

Its like ruler, a bunch of boulders, but a lot longer. It has a lot of dif grabbers and depending on lines possibility of body damage.

[Jeeppeepin]

Strong possibility that I may attend also. A friend at work wants to ride with, so I'll show em our kind of wheelin'. :p

C-ya there!

[Wildcat455]

Sure come with. It shouldnt be a much challenge for your buggy

Bringing the CJ...

<Whisper>Who's gonna tell Rachel this is a Rock Garden, her least favorite kind of wheelin'?</Whisper>

If there's time, lets run Ruler afterwards...

[Skii4x4]

I know she hates rock gardens :D

But yeah definitely ruler if theres time

[KRWLNXJ]

i wouldn't mind tagging along, last time i did this trail was at night and would like to do it during the day. hope to see you all out for a day of fun:D

[SHNIPE]

Id go but i hate any kinda wheeling that involves rocks, sand, dirt, mud or fresh air..... Ok really ill be at work instead. Making money instead of spending. Of course when rachel actually wheels with the public.. i cant go. Last time it cost me $800 when i missed a chance to wheel.

Bill, Pm'd you bout that trail. Its been run. ONCE! just recently

[Lifes A Jeep]

This was one hell of a run. You guys weren't kidding when you said it was long! It took 7 of us almost 8 hours to run this trail. There is too much carnage to list.

I'll post pics later on tonight.

Thanks Kevin for leading us through there.

Yikes.

[Jeeppeepin]

Yup,
Great trail. Even for a rock garden. It was a bit longer than I expected. I guess when Kevin says it's a long trail, I'll listen better.
Very tired. Kevin is writing the carnage list right now. It will be a while.

Nice to meet everyone. Great to wheel with ya again John.
And thanks for the spot Bill. :D

[Skii4x4]

Great run. Thanks for everyone coming out and being positive for all of our delays. So get comfortable and here is the long list for carnage that we know of, also there were only 7 vehicles:


1 tire
hole in radiator
bent leaf spring
1 flop
broken speedo gear
2 blown beads
broken shock
broken rear driveshaft
severly bent, almost broken tie rod and drag link
1 ball joint
1 u-joint
heavily leaking front axle


I look forward to the pictures and thanks for the good time.

Also I think everybody got a dent of some sort on their vehicle

[joedokes28]

Looking forward to the pics. Sounds like a crazy day...

[arlo]

And one broken spirit.

And one hurt right leg.....ouch!

[DesertX04]

I thought that was great trail. Long day, but a fun one. Although, I'm sure I'd feel different if I was on the carnage list :( (besides the new dents). Thanks for leading Kevin.

[Wildcat455]

I had fun. I actually didn't mind it was a long trail. At least we got to wheel all day!

[KRWLNXJ]

Here is a few highlight pictures can go too http://www.windsweptcats.com on the 4 Wheelin page for a whole lot more pics.

Was a long day but we had a great time.

Darn it, I wish I would have gone. I wish I could have saw Jeffs flop in person :D. Well anyway, My ARBs are now funtional so I guess i need to set up a shake down run for next weekend. Great pics looks like a great trail.

Jeff

[Wildcat455]

Yeah, I expected you to be there, but Johnny Longbow said you got kinda Jittery and at the last minute said you had to "Wash your hair" or something.

Soo.. Shakedown run. Is it going to be MetroCenter or Paradise Valley Mall? :D

Wow that is great!!!! If the previous owner could only see it now. Thanks for showing that. That picture is great. I remember when that trail was so hard. If I only knew what I was planning on doing.
