Our group will be there. Hopefully we will cut a new trail Friday the 30th.

Where is the new trail going?

It will be either off of trail 28 between the huge rocks or off of the new trail on the right up the hill on the main road just before the campground. I can't remember the number of the last trail but if we cut in that area will probably end up being a rock garden.
 
will be there friday morning . the new trail will be between the big rocks at the top of 28.we could use all the help we can get.cut trails during the day ride at night.
 
Had a great time this at GMP. Big thanks to Sawzall, Rockwell 1, jcorlew and Albert for helping us out and showing us around.

My clutch let out at the top of trail 14 on Friday night right after I went and put a yellow top in it....

Shot 2 holes thru the top, one out the bottom and seized up the shifter. Haven't taken it apart yet.

Great pics neff. I had a ball. Nice to meet all you boys and like he said thanks for showing us around and lending a hand to fix a few things.
 
We showed up on Friday to help cut trails... But as soon as we got in the park, the water dept called and said that I had a leak and had used 140,000 gallons of water this month. :puke:

Turns out their compression fitting coming out of the meter had come loose and was running a **** ton of water off in teh holler in front of the house... I never noticed it, but I had to go home and find the leak and dig the sumbitch up... Ruined my Friday.

We rode on Saturday tho. Had lots of breakage in our group. I busted a front ring gear and Rodney blew a D60 u joint, which took out both shafts and the inner C... blew the knuckle off at the top of Honey Bee, had to 3 wheel piggy back him out and use the backhoe to get it on the trailer....

Here are some pics. Couldn't have asked for better weather to cruise around in the woods.

Tight squeeze on new trail. Don't know if this tree will have to be cut or not. I would have tried it but I had already broke my front gears

Pictures don't do the roll over justice. If the tree had not have stopped it there would have been a barrel roll off the hill.

The tree entering the new trail will have to be cut. We were thinking about trying to leave it to make a squeeze like the one in Lions Den at Harlan but the rock wall is too long and tall we think. Also the exit would be a winch only without building something over the big gap in the rock.

I'd like to try it with the tree in there. I really don't see a one ton rig getting through there tho... There is only 6 feet between the tree and rock wall.

The exit looks fun. Most likely will be a winch hill anyway, but I'd still run it.
 
Thanks for the help of getting me right side up again. And yes thank God for that tree. I would have enjoyed a nice roll only problem was I had the wife ridding shotgun lol. great park!!
