    15th ORT in The Lone Ranger – Flat Nasty 3-9-13

    January 26, 2016 /

    After a quick battery swap Friday night, I was ready to hit the road Saturday (first time I’ve ever had a battery short internally). For the first part of the day, we hung around in the south portion of the park, jumping up and off several trails out there. In the afternoon, we wandered around the mid section (trail 20) and a few other places. Travel: Once we aired down, we jumped on the Bunny trail and wandered around from…

We covered 13 miles in the park mostly running around on trails that I hadn’t been on before (some 2’s and 3’s with some 4’s for good measure). Since the wife came along, that means that there are some photos of the truck for a change. We…

    7th ORT Washita MX – 4/21/12

    December 14, 2015 /

    I didn’t have my camera, but my friend grabbed a few with his phone. Minimal damage for me this trip out (Broken door handle, and roached motor mounts). The CJ that was with us managed to sheaer the bolts off his high steer arm on the back side of the park, so we made a long afternoon of dragging him back out. Turned out to not be that big of an ordeal, but it took some time: Travel: Group Shot:…
