To answer an earlier post in another thread, the upper trail to Blazer is open, after about 2.5 hours of work, and I hope to get the lower trail this week/weekend. It is definitely dug out/taller than ever at the ledge. There appears to be some water erosion going on. A strategically placed log would do wonders.

I completely forgot about Blazer when we were down there...would of at least liked of looked at it.

Also forgot to mention, but years ago I had my towrig and trailer up the hill past Moonshine....in the dark and rain, and slid back down with my 6,000 lb. trail rig on the trailer.

Donnie, that's a nice looking rig you posted pictures of. Looks kinda purty though. Carwash, I know your not talking about mine, it's rough.

The rest of Blazer is open now. Someone has been up there working their arse off, probably about 5 hours total now, so enjoy.

I think that was the maiden voyage on the truck I posted. it was at wheelers dirt parka couple weeks back. Was another ranger with him.

Couldnt believe I found some built RBV's in this state.

twiztedzuki · 11-21-2009, 07:41 PM

Yeah white ranger was with him and no it was not his maiden voyage it been out few times before Wheelers. It has been to Slade, Im pretty sure! Yeah he thrashed it on little widow maker!

i wanna know, 1st: how did he fit that wideass thing in little widowmaker and 2nd: why would he have to thrash it there? 33's can make it through there quite easily with open diff's?!

What part of the trail? Didn't think there even any place on Little Widowmaker you could thrash on a rig like that.....would think that truck could run that trail in 2wd.

twiztedzuki · 11-23-2009, 08:28 PM

Yeah heard he got stuck on that first big rock, then had to pull winch!

I'm right there with you......especially no rocks that would be considered big in comparison to 49's!

Redriverranger · 11-24-2009, 05:55 PM

I think there may me a case of mistaken identity on several counts. Trails, people, etc.

twiztedzuki · 11-24-2009, 06:44 PM

No I was joking, it was a sarcastic comment. It has 49 on rocks but stays on flat ground!!

boomhauer · 11-24-2009, 07:05 PM
