Archived Looking for peeps to run Long Canyon on Monday, March 25

[mbryson]

Anyone up for that? I know it's a tough trail, but I think we can get everyone through it. My parents will be with me on Sunday-Tues. and I thought Long Canyon would be a cool trail for them to check out? I've never run it

GPX track is downloaded into my GPS.

Isn't that trail rated an 11?

I love long canyon. Wish I could make it.

Watch my "Jeep" break on that one? Half way in or something.

At least it'd be a scenic hike out.

Neither me nor my parents are hiking very far. I'm probably in better shape than them (and probably better than I've been for a few years?)

I heard you need 37s and front and rear lockers to even think about it.

I'm good there.

See now that just makes me want to try it on 35's...sort of.

Where is long canyon?

 

[BCGPER]

Dood, you're gonna roll.....

If my Rubi's here by then I'll run down and try not to roll it

That's why I said sort of, maybe it's a good thing I'm still out of the country.

Dude, you and mbrycson are both crazy to take such nice JK's down such a hardcore trail. You guys might want to stick to the tame trails before you go destroying sheetmetal on such a nice rig.

Remember, from the offroading 101 handbook, if you do roll it's ALWAYS the spotters fault.

Just make sure to have good insurance and a low deductible...problem solved.

And that's why Steve is nervous about being my spotter at OSRC.

Wish I could run down there to run it with you. My vacation doesn't renew until April 3rd.

We could do a JK only run (not that I really care for those kind of things.....I'm kind of a run what you brung as long as it's capable kind of guy)

 

[BCGPER]

We should REALLY do this.

Yes, your new JK will definitely be here before this run. I'd consider joining you guys except I have to work that Monday morning. I'll arrive in Moab that evening (in time to run EH the next day).
