If you intend on running the "Busy Wild" trail, I'd advise you to have a winch and a few friends to run it with.

Trust me i dont plan on running the busy wild. I saw some vids and pics ppl posted from last weekend. And yup the 19th sat 8am first rigs out and last out at 12 10$ for u and ur rig and 5 for additional passangers. They provide lunch.

intriguing might have to consider this. I'm just not sure I want to enter the busy with my Jeep. Is the busy required to run this or other trails and the busy optional.
And the mainline trail is the one with the nasty mudhole your thinking of, there are plenty of videos on youtube of it swallowing rigs with massive tires. I seen the video from the weekend trip and can't believe that guy even tried it

Haha correction. Timmy didn't get through it. It swallowed his jeep first. Good try tho. The bronco got just as far....actually technically it made it through. We had the winch in the front an winched through it just permanentlly hydrolocked the engine.

I am pretty sure the Busy will not be part of this poker run, but there will definitely be some people there running it if anyone wants to go out and put a couple fresh dents on their rig. These events are usually pretty fun and its always cool to get to check watch all the big buggies tackle the really gnarly obstacles.

I think the BIG MUDHOLE Eric is refering to is on the Mainline Trail not Sunrise. If you're refering to the one that Swallowed OleBlue, that is on the Mainline. He is isn't exaggerating either. OleBlue, Timmy's XJ is lifted 6.5-7 inches and is sitting on 35 inch Toyos and that mudhole literally swallowed his Jeep as in water clear over the hood!! It still needs to dry out a bit for us guys on 33s and 35s to try.
