awesome weekend at the badlands, one of the more enjoyable trips i'd say. great stories, parts breaking, and more. my pics aren't all that good, but jd took all the good shots, he'll post them up in a little while so look for those later.
the only breakage was moa broke a front axle shaft, 10 mins before the park closes after going off by himself and we couldn't find him :doh: he had to leave his junk in the badlands all night needless to say he was the butt of our jokes for the evening
oh yeah, i went in when they opened and replaced his shaft cuz brandon wasn't in very good shape, me and josh fixed it and delivered it to him. but thats another story, among many to come.
oh yeah, i'm trying the sprinkler under the jeep trick right now.
trail leader brandon decides he thinks he knows a better trail, w/ a stock yj followin us, and just gets burried in 3 ft. of mud and ruts and josh goes wading through the mud so i could yank him out, the bank he was in was taller than his jeep and he wedged himself against it.
josh, where's the real pics, quit feeding your face
Perfect pics of your tunnel jump! The best part was that Matt just finished saying that if Dave had just gone alittle faster, he'd have made it. Then you shoot out of there 2 seconds later!
Sting glad you could make it out. Yes jeeps can go a long ways. You missed the later half after you left we did some pretty good trails and you would of really seen some of the things a jeep can handle like being almost all the way on it's side and still go straight. We will be out in Attica again July 10th
The ride home wasn't bad.. Sucked being sick and the tarp gave me a headache lol.. Dang thing kept leaking too.. I fixed it so I could see out the passenger side window when I stopped at supertest to air up..
And FYI I ride my rig hard which is why shit breaks.. Josh forgot to mention I lost most of the tc linkage as well and now have to engage it under the rig by hand
Man so nice pictures, To bad theres not more of that sexy little yj, herd that thing was the best jeep there. lol this is matt btw, owner of the little white yj, and can say i had a blast, Cant wait to get back
josh leaves out i was the first one to do the tunnel, and made it, i wasn't stuck or hung up at all, we hooked a strap to the back as i went through, since we didn't know how deep it got right there. josh just did it the crazier way.
everyone said, hang on, lets go and see how deep it is, thats how i checked
the second time josh did it was hilarious, cuz a group of quads were down there saying no one will do it and they wanna see it. josh said we did that already, wanna see it again. so he had an audiance.
Matt I will say this. You followed me through most of orange trail and didn't get stuck I was impressed!!! Just glad you didn't have to pull me out of that mud hole I got stuck in. I would of been there all nite!
i got some more of heather driving my jeep but this is one josh took =D shes posing on the rock waiting on dave to make up his mind.. right after this i pulled my jeep into the tunnel to hook up to daves end to make sure he didnt flop his jeep out of the tunnel
heck she drove my jeep longer than i did this weekend..
oh i found this one too on josh's photobucket
