Backdoor now paved.

yup...

Its true...

Could probably get a stock Sami up there with 26" street tires now...

No pictures on me, camera lost battery power, but the big rock on the left that your driver rear tire used to have to climb got pulled out while someone in my group was backing down after ripping a rear upper link off a week and a half ago...

it makes for a challenging time getting onto the fall, but a cakewalk up it now...

No foul-play... no winching, just the tire pulling it down as he backed off...



I am glad that I was there to see it though, because I was also there when the big rock got pulled out of the upper fall a few years back...

Maybe the meaning behing Tinbender's "CLEAN-UP" should be CLEAN-OUT all the PAVEMENT as well....


It's a bummer to see stackers not unstack







Bring on the gates...................

Damn, I love leaving my account logged in....


But yes, I kinda took the hard part out of the first fall. Some buddies ran over to it this weekend and said between the first fall and second fall, he could almost do it in 2wd in his juggy on 4ds.

He forgot his camera that weekend too

At least it will be quicker to get to Resolution now! Don't have to drive up the sand hill!

I am sure it would be because it would have needed a helicopter drop off.

You can't let Matt on any of the good trails. If he doesn't ruin
the trail he manages to ruin someone elses junk!

Right Scrappy?
