Cougar Buttes 1/24 - 1/25...hardcore trail search...who wants some? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Looking for new challenging trails after that AZ trip! Hammers are cool, but I'm looking for some more trails like Back Door. Plus that long 45 minute drive is getting old, and Cougar Buttes is only 20 minutes away!

The AZ guys have better trails for now, although I didn't see a driveable obstacle better than the waterfall on Back Door. We just need to go to the next level, and we have the resources to do it. So, let's get with it! Who's in?

I found a nice little route to drive up about 200 - 300 yards
past where the Benders were camped at Cougar for Put up or
Shut up. Aaronn and JRT both drove it. Since JRT is close, ask
him to show it to you.

AZ tends to have that effect on people. Man I love living here. 45min from Table Mesa and 45Min from Florence Junction.

You are a wheelin fool, EMIEVEL

Although JV has the baddest bolder fields, AZ has got those washes with big slabs that make up the waterfalls. We need more of those along with more cactuses, maybe some water holes filled with a little oil

No, I can't go, my tow junk is being worked on

I'd like to go. After seeing some of the pics from there I want to check it out.

But I have to take a training course this weekend

Have fun

I guess with all the web wheelers it will just be you and I again Chris!

Well, it's looking like Saturday afternoon and Sunday. Nobody wants to go run the competition course?
