Another Socal short run to Corral Canyon/Sidewinder...

[Cherikon]

Don't think I'll be able to make it this time. Both axle tube seal's are blown on the driver side so yea. We'll see. I really want to run SideWinder backwards if we do go. I'll keep ya guys posted.

Scott- what the hell did you do? Ryan shoud have some seals if you need them. Would you have a chance to roll down there this week? They are pretty easy to install.

Between 8 and 9 out at 4 Corners sounds good. Adam- just make sure you bring that book, otherwise we are winging the Los Pinos trail (outer loop).

Anyone and everyone is welcome to come out, so please try and make it out if you can.

I dont know man. Rear one is totally gone and the front one is bad. I am going to give Ryan a call tomorrow. Only chance I will be able to get down there is Saturday afternoon. But we'll see. If I can somehow make it I'll be there. I guess I'll just have to run it another weekend with you guys. I gotta get another run in before Big Bear. Hopefully with the new tires. Have fun and good luck.

Scott-

That blows that you and Mike might not be able to make it out this weekend. Hope things work out for your seals and tires.

The wife is trying to keep me home but I am working on her. So, we will see what happens. I keep telling her I need to test my Tera low 4:1. (I think she is jealous that she isnt going)

Come on Rob, I wanna see what your Jeep can do. :shocked:

Also really looking forward to meeting new people.

Can't wait!!

You know, I think 10ish would be better for me too. What says the rest of you?

Yeah, it wouldnt take too long to run it. 30-to one hour depending on how many stops we make to check things out.

 

[nosigma]

I will be there at 0800 and return to 4 corners by 1000. Primary Ch 4. Call when you get in the area.

[Jeepsterboy101]

Which one did you guys run? Any problems?

 

[nosigma]

We ran Sidewinder and then the outer loop (Los Pinos). My first time there. Sidewinder was a lot of fun and I did some things I didnt think my XJ could do before which is always a great experience. The outer loop was much easier but had plenty of water, mud and challenging enough the you couldnt go to sleep at the switch. Best of all were the views. Must take wife and daughter up there this week to drive that and take pictures.

Chad, Chris (Wrangler) and I went to Smugglers Cave, Elliot Mine and then managed some tougher trails in an area where there is no boarder fence. We finished the run under lights. Elliot mine is really neat and has lots of fresh air so its a good time. Lots of alternate trails in the area that are more challenging than the main road. Given the sporadic automatic weapons fire, helicopter activity, drug paraphenalia and debris along the trails its not to hard to figure out what they are used for. Chad and Chris got some good pictures which I hope we can post up later.
