New BFE trail is...... Dropkick!

[Olaf]

But hey Jeff S! I got my trailer built and used it to haul posts with. I built the hitch, and it seems to work great.

Nice work/trail trailer Jeff! I see that you stuck with the green theme on the wheels but why's the tub blue?

 

[Badbuggy]

The tub is from an old jeep pickup I had. It will be bobbed, and painted soon.

We got enough rock chipped away today to connect the lower and upper parts of Dropkick. We still are going to chip off another 8-12", but I was able to drive through with my 82" track width.

 

[Herzog]

Wow that looks fun! I want to come down & help. I'll have to get in contact with you soon.

 

[Badbuggy]

Wow, I know what the "before" looked like. You guys really put some work into that. All by hand?

 

[Olaf]

WOW!!! That's awesome!!! You guys really widened that a bunch!

Yeah, all by hand. We did use some expanding "demolition agent" stuff that we poured into some holes we drilled, but mostly it was just a lot of work with an electric rotohammer and jackhammer.

Great job out there! It's pretty obvious that you guys have spent a lot of time out there developing this trail. Dropkick was a lot of fun, it will be interesting to see how the trail changes. It's all pretty loose right now.

The signs look great.

I'm pretty sure there's a small electromagnetic pulse on blackout. 2/4 vehicles on that trail experienced electrical failure

Again, thanks for all the hard work you guys have put into developing these trails. That's a fun little section, and it's obvious a ton of time was spent making it driveable.

What kind of electric failures? Maybe that's why it's called blackout?

One bad relay and one still unknown wire short... I initially thought the trail should be renamed, but then realized how appropriate blackout was.

We ran the trail this weekend and it was great....4 rigs all had a good time.
