The Cinders (Flagstaff, AZ)
The cinders is an OHV area located just outside of Flagstaff, AZ and its close enough for us desert dwellers to escape the heat in the summer time.
The best I can describe it is very similar to the dunes, except instead of sand its very small gravel, volcanic gravel. Setting up camp, no fancy RV for us, we tent it! http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/a...10/1070001.jpg The quads and bikes race up $100 hill, while the rest of us look on. http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/a...10/1400001.jpg My co-pilot http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/a...10/1300001.jpg Still some snow on top of The San Francisco Peaks, Humphreys Peak is the highest point in the state of Arizona at 12,633 feet. http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/a...10/1820001.jpg the drags http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/a...10/1980001.jpg Kinda looks like I may actually have some speed in this one. :) http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/a...10/2330001.jpg |

$100 looks scary. do alot of people flip it up there??? is it mainly for quads and dirt bike or have you meet some one risky enough to take their rig up that???
|
I have seen rails do it, but mostly bikes and quads, most quads don't make it all the way. I've never witnessed a full size vehicle try it, however I saw a video of a chevy truck try it on youtube, he didn't get very far.
|
your xj looks incredibly similar to mine.
|
Havent been there yet, but it definitly looks like a good place to explore!
Awesome pics a couple of them are wallpaper worthy! |
$100 hill is awesome!! i just watched every youtube video with it lol
|
You take great pictures by the way. If you're in Flagstaff again there's some really rocky pipeline roads off of Leupp road if you're looking for something to do. I live around there I just did some exploring a few weeks back

We usually go up every may, I took my truck this last time. Was up in Williams a couple weeks ago for Bearizona and stopped in at the arboretum on the way back. |
Ya. Leupp road takes you to the reservation
|
Mighty fine photos. I can see why everyone says such wonderful things about the Cinders. You're making me want to escape.

Here is a video from this years trip with my truck. It was also my first time using the GoPro.
then this is one from years ago with the Jeep. |
