Trying 14 the other way



Went up 14 and liked it so much, we went back.

Hey there,

Yes, I have the lift.  May not look like much, but it does not bang as much as when we went out in November. 

Here I am going later without snow.

Trail 14 is the favorite trail of the Mrs. She loves running it both ways. We even ran it during the ice mess in January. That made it even more interesting.

14 has to be one of my favorite trails.  if it had a small rock garden on it it be even better.  i like taking newbees on it too.  i have never heard a person complain about it.  tight turns, drops, mud some rocks  just all around fun.

Just messing around with donated stock bumpers till I either design my own or buy one.

Thanks.  They are 3/4" lifting eyes. I can't quite remember, but I think the threads are rated for 9000 lbs.  Work good too. Used them getting pulled out at the Pine Barrens a few weekends back.

My first time out, 3+ years ago in January when I was completely stock (except for skid plates) I got hung up in some ruts on this trail.  I had three different people spotting me at the same time, and that really screwed me up.  I've never gotten hung up on that trail since, but did have a slight problem with my steering when I lost a bolt to my front trac bar last summer.

I have run 14 both ways many times and I think running backwards is fun.  I don't know which way I like better though.

This from from December '09 during the first big winter storm of 2009/2010 winter season.

Never tried it backwards but that @#$% rock in the above picture gets my rear bumper every time!

Wish I could find the picture of a guy I work with that actually flopped his rig right there.  Seems to me like I had more trouble running it in my built rig than I did with my DD.

And my trail rig.

This photo?     I seriously think you have to pick a horrible line to end up on your side there.

Nah, Randy just can't drive. 

Then again I have no room to talk...I've flopped my junk twice in the same spot on trail 10.  The second time was absolutely, 100% on purpose.  Was trying to put a show on for the kids.  They LOVED it!  The first time it happened I felt my truck go weightless and made the noob mistake of stabbing the brakes.  @#$% happens.

We did 14 backwards last December...that was a fun trail!!!
