AZ Trails; Collaterol Damage

Symon623 · Dec 4, 2007

Jobless and Jeepmauler were down here in november for 3 days and I am gonna start posting the trails that we took them on. one trail at a time. This was the first trail on day three; We ran this trail on day two and had much better success cept for my cut tire at teh top. We didn't have camera slace for any pics on day 2 when Barry, Brad and Jeff ran Twisted, I joined them for Collaterol Damage I and II, and they ran Anaconda as I was on a marginal spare tire.

Barry was trail leader again but I didn't get much of him. Here's jeff on the first obstacle. Doesn't look like much but wait till you see the leaf sprung guys go through it.

Brad was next and tried for about 20 minutes on Saturday, got real light in the front end, took the bypass, so he opted to go straigh to the bypass today.

Oldschool showed a tire in the air as well but took the cable.
