ooh ohh I'll bite. there was a reason I was waiting ;-)

Probably the best trail I ran was BYS at the BBQ in 2007. It was my FIRST day wheeling with the 79' toyota. After we ate dinner, Horus and some others said "ooh ohh lets go run BYS!" of course me, being sorta new and naive said "sounds great!"

of course, here I am in a beater toyota, which broke an axle earlier that day. But it was worth seeing. I didn't have ANY idea what we were in for. It was about 9pm, and we get to the entrance. We start in and I'm immediately s**tin' my pants. I feel like the rig is going to topple over and I hadn't even wheeled it for 12hrs yet!

We slowly make it through, after peeing every 5 minutes (not sure if that was nervousness or the fact I downed 5 beers in the last hour :redneck and some open/open cherokee. It takes us most of the night to make it half way through the trail and then we start hearing beads pop. This cherokee was PRISTINE when the night started. By 1am we end up nearly burning down the forest trying to light the tire back onto the bead. In that time the cherokee had to be winched out of its little pit we formed, and managed to shatter the back glass when the winch went right through it :haha: :haha: :haha:

all in all, it was about 3am by the time we got out, and I only got to run BYS one more time, as a passenger. It was one of the most difficult runs I had encountered in my 3 years of doing this. I can't wait to find/make some new trail that can match its difficulty!

The morning after:

I'll play.

Walker Valley, Pat's trail, I was a new, stupid driver and didn't know what I was gettin myself into. My buddy in a stock Cherokee on 29's and me in my stock pathfinder on 31's head up to Walker, and hit Pat's trail to the Expressway.

We would walk the trail till we found the next place we could turn around, then drive up to there and park and walk up further. (it was a week day, so no traffic)

We made it to the lookout just past the expressway, walked up, and decided that we could not make it any further. We then went down Pat's.

I wedged my front tow hook on the top of Pats trail on a stump, and it took me about 15 min of screwing around before I worked up the courage to drive with a some cajones to get outa my predicement.

I swore to my buddy, I would never wheel Walker Valley again... I try to wheel Walker all I can now:redneck:

It was my first real time wheeling, and it was deffinetly the most memorable.

Little Rattlesnake

Located off of Hwy 410, turn in at the Woodshed Lounge (groceries & gas), trail is up on the north side of Bethel Ridge

Anyways, this was always one of my favorites due to the challenges it offered in trail obstacles, such as difficulties through the trees & terrain. The trees were close together creating different lines for all vehicles, requiring multiple point manuevers to get through. The sidehills & draws would create opportunities to roll, or flop or just get your attention

Was, is said because this trail was closed 7 years ago due to the change in 'enviromental thinking' & application to our trails over the years. This trail has been redisgned, re-routed & is planned to be re-opened this year

I can't give an opinion on the trail as I haven't run it yet. I do want to say 'Thank You' those who have put out the time & effort in getting this trail re-opened. I can only hope that it'll be as challenging & fun to run as in the past....this was always a great weekend run leading into Rimrock

Best trail ever is Region 4 Meadows early spring, full of snow drifts, down trees, off camber, and before the area gets full of drunk asshats on Memorial Day... If you make it all the way thru, it is a short trip up to the Rocks as a play area to finish up the day before you come out thru Barber Springs and don't ever have to back track for the day!

Its hard to commit to one trail being my favorite, I would have to say Reiter as a whole was by far my favorite! I have really only wheeled up there a couple of my times in my own rig, but the group I was with were a bunch of stand up guys, Money, Mark M, Bill(stealthrunner), Stu(68jeeepster), and nikki along with a few others, one day in particular I was in my toyota going up cable trail, I was rocking 35x15x15 baha claws on some 15x14 wheels, i kept popping beads whereever I went, Everyone took the time to help my dumbass out and teach me how to do a trail fix. I dont think I have ever had that much fun since then. I felt like i was part of the group, which was a very new thing for me after some of the struggles I have faced in the past few yrs. It was nice to feel like a human being again!

Crash you and the others I mentioned above have been awesome to me and I respect the hell out of you guys for everything!! I very much so look up to all of you! Thanx for the chance on the red star!

Best one I have ever ran was one that I can not remember the name of. It is in Rim Rock. We had five jeeps with us; 2 flat fenders on D44's, a high hood, a TJ on 37's, and an 81 CJ5 on 34's. I was just along for the ride in the CJ5 as at the time did not have a rig. We went down a bunch of trails and at first this on was no big deal but then got tight and had a good number of switch backs. Great veiw as well. We then got to a hill with a tigh left at the bottom with a rock base like they build when the trail has washed out. About 3/4 up the climb was a ledge next to a tree. No big deal, but like alot of Rim Rock the hill was open on one side so it would be a long ride down. The first rig was the TJ and after a good wheel stand he made it up and over then to the top of the climb. Then it was our turn in the CJ5. Our first try was in vain as we were stopper by the ledge right away. Then we hit it harder and got the front over it but at that point the 5 was standing on the rear bumper and leaning to my side, ALOT. The tree would have stopped a ful on side roll but we would have gone oner the back anyways. We backed down but got a little too much speed goin and kinda got a bit out of shape. We slowed it down and back on the trial. At the bottom I got out and was goin to pull the cable next time he got to the ledge as he did not want to roll. I took two steps from the rig and then BOOM he was goin down the bank. 3 1/4 rolls and he came to a stop by a tree on the driver side. I ran down the hill as fast as my short ass legs could get me goin and was first to reach him. He was a bit banged up but too bad. While cleaning up from the roll I saw a tube from another Jeep down the next part of the hill. It had gone about another 20 feet and then dropped about 20 more to the spot it now sits. It really made me think about just how fast this sport could end you. This was not the hardest trail in the world (or area I am sure), but it really gave me a knew respect for our sport. All was good and we even drove the 5 back to camp after some trail fixs. Good times were had and my eyes were opened and to me that makes that the best trail I have ever run.:beer:

well mine would have to be the busy wild on a 4x4 quad in the winter.
It was last winter January after a windy winter storm a buddy and I decided to take his quads out and play in the snow. Elbe here we come. The snow was deep and cold. We got to the trail head about 9:00 am and knew we had a full day of ridding ahead of us. There where trees down all over the trail and the snow did not help. So Chris and i cut the trees out of are way all day long and we keepet looking up for wido makers that was scarry.never had to realy worry about that befor. I have been on this trail many time befor but this time i had more fun on a 4x4 quad then ever in my toyota. You can't just sit and ride. you have to be on your toe's the entier time, leaning forword back side to side. what a work out. By mid day we where about half way through. I have come to the conclushin that this quads where mine tanks, unstopable. We went on are day and made it to the bottem thats where the winch's came in to play. We had to winch through some deep holes that weren't that deep in my toyota with 40. "wow". we made it throught with no worrys and decided to stop for a bite to eat and build a small fire to worm up. Got back on and made it out just after 10:00pm. that was the most fun i have ever had on the busy wild.:awesomework:

Full of Hate at the Hammers. One waterfall after the other straight up to the top. Technical enough to hand anyone their ass. word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word word

Outlet mall cuz lots of sweat and heart went into building the trail for everyone to use. Hard enough to be used as a standard to compare other difficult trails too.
