I resemble that remark!!!

Adventure is close today due to the weather, so that may not work either based on weather forecasts for the weekend.

That sucks
GMP then

I know that it's constant maintenance to keep the access roads up at gmp when there is a lot of rain. But they have to keep the easy trails easy, for all the stock ish Jeeps and Land Cruisers that have big events there

Adventure said they may reopen tomorrow but would just depend on the weather.

I bet Golden Mtn is super slick right now, probably wouldn't even be any fun.

I just got home from gmp we went up Thursday. It was slick as owl **** but we had a blast our group of 5 buggies were the only ones up there yall should of came it changes into a totally different world up there when it's wet. Out of the hole group staying balls to wall the hole time we only broke a ring gear a longfield and a highsteer arm. But there was some trails it was just to slick to even pull up on.

Nothing too serious, broke the front locker(actually just the cross pin), broke the winch, and broke a tie rod end

Front locker (Aussie) has broke 3 factory cross pins, so he's going to make a new one from s7 tool steel and have it heat treated,

Winch (warn 8000) gearbox is under warranty

Tie rod end.... Well we should have had a spare. I picked some up from the junkyard today
