It took a really hard rollover last Sept, to convince me to link it.

FLIT67 · 05-10-2012, 11:26 AM

I'll be there (as a spectator this time) Fri. morning.

Chevybanshee · 05-10-2012, 06:05 PM

Is any one exited? haha leaving first thing tomorrow morning.

#1toyota · 05-10-2012, 07:42 PM

Can't wait! Leaving at noon.

MTMudpuppy · 05-10-2012, 08:06 PM

I heard from people today that Bruce's property, (the guy that puts the show on) is completely full. They started to let people onto the stateland which is filling fast. Should be a huge turnout.

Chevybanshee · 05-10-2012, 09:34 PM

I heard there was lots of people too hope there is room

shortbus4x4 · 05-11-2012, 06:11 AM

Saw about half a dozen mud only rigs on trailers heading north on 95 yesterday.

Wild_7bill · 05-11-2012, 02:15 PM

This place is always a good time! I am just hitting the door on my way... Scouts is not ready yet but I have a video camera, bunch of beer, bunch of whiskey, and some buddys with rigs already up there... I am sure they have broke something already! Looks like great weather too! If you see a drunk guy tripping on himself... thats me! dont mind me, its cool

Power Giant · 05-11-2012, 03:41 PM

Just saw a bunch of ISP's in northern Bonner County pulling over folks headed to Moyie. Beware.

Idaho4x4Bronco · 05-12-2012, 01:12 PM

I heard Spinney's 54" claws made quick work of a rockwell axle shaft on his first run

That's correct, but I think that the axle shaft was already weakened from a previous hit. I think that tank trap is about the best it's ever been. About halfway up it there is a double squeeze rock that I just could not make it through without winching. Wrong wheelbase, I guess.

Yeah. My brother was there in his mostly stock 1st gen Toyota camped near Ben & Allen, telling me how good Moyie was this year. (I'm in Kansas right now)

Glad you guys had fun & everyone was safe. Sorry about your winching, maybe you need a buggy!

FLIT67 · 05-13-2012, 02:06 PM

Yep--good times!!! So, who had the blue suburban with the doors off only running 2wd? that person 'bout got yanked out and beat down on the tank trap. gonna have to take some days off next year so that I don't have to leave Sat. afternoon.
Who caught the dude in the tough truck launching it about 40 ft. into the pit. that was cool!!

MTMudpuppy · 05-13-2012, 04:03 PM

It was a good time..but I have to admit there needs to be a limit on people or something. Way to crowded this year. And it seemed the drunks were in full force. The passenger side of my 4runner got caved in due to an idiot who said it was in the way, even though I was pulled over to the side of the trail!
