[postalxj]

Man looks like fun!!!!! Great flex pics.

 

[friscokidd]

X2 on what trail was that?

 

[in4aride]

well its just rampart range road....
we start by balanced rock in garden of gods then head up....
we just kept taking small side trails off main road....



the section that got us oober flexy is just a small short cut off main road...
its about halfway up on the left side....
the road curves left around a large mound....but there is a section that goes thro that is simply an articulation section...really fun and great for pics

hey we should setup an naxja snow day bash thingy, that would be cool

 

[jeepfreak1020]

Im with Time2getdirty, we should run a snow bash trail before everything is closed. Or if no one wants Time2getdirty we could do just a little snow bashing. Let me know shoot me a PM

 

[in4aride]

im game!!!!

 

[jeepfreak1020]

Alright cool. We got 3 now. I dont know what trails you have in mind since were kind of far apart. Would you want to drive to georgetown or idaho springs?

 

[Kiefer316]

[XJNOOB93]

id be in.. when would it be?? Im going to be out of town the 10th-20th..

 

[xjintrevor]

count me in if i have my rear end done = D lol

 

[time2getdirty]

well i was up in idaho spring last weekend when the snow was just starting to stick and it was great we hit spring creek trail and a couple other no named trails... and down in town i know the guy that owns the icecream shop by beo joes so we can go get some pizza and icream or whatever pick a date and we'll se how it works for everyone

 

[jeepfreak1020]

I really dont want to run spring creek. B/c they have gotten alot more snow, and how tuff that trail and with snow, and im not really build enough to run it yet. I would rather do a trail rated easy or moderate or something that we dont have to worry much about rocks or anything. Something rated a 4 or less? We could do loch lomond, bill moore lake, bunch school road, Devil's Canyon any other ideas guys?


I was thinking eather the 13th, 14th, 20th or 21st. What day/days works for you guys?

 

[time2getdirty]

haha ya spring creek was extreamly hard in the snow, and with it being are first time runing that trail and first time with lockers we made it halfway up the hard side and then backed down did the easy and made it to the first big rock garden... ill have to cheack my schedual the 13th might work, i know of a coupl nonamed trails that are around empire so we might be able to do that what setup is everyone else running so we can get trails that will be good foreveryone... i am locked in the rear 4:10 gears 3.5 rustys aal runing 31''s... i am open to medium and some hard if we have a guy with a winch...(im winchless)

 

[jeepfreak1020]

Im running a 4.5" lift with with BFG AT's stock gears and open front and rear

 

[Kiefer316]

[XJNOOB93]
