Is walker that fun??? Everytime I see someone doing a run, it seams like either Walker or Rim Rock. I almost want to spend the $100 and go up there for a day.

If you bring your rig to walker valley while it's open/open just be prepared for some body damage. Your rig looks pretty clean without any major dents or scratches, so if youre still planning on selling it I would not take it walker valley. Also, running open/open you better have some tow points front and back cause chances are you'll need a tow.

Yep as long as you are on minimum 33 inch tires (That have good off road tread) open/open will get you through most. All if it is dry enough but, always expect some at least minor body damage....AND definitely have tow points front and rear. Your own working winch would be better.

You gotta stop being a pansy nwhunter. Get out and try some trails, see what your jeep can do. You would probably be surprised. You can't take what everyone else says to do all the time, just look at he trail and make your own decisions on if you want to try it out or not.
I have never been to walker but i will bet you there are at least a few trails you can do and would have tons of fun doing, just gotta get out there and do it!!
sorry for calling you a pansy but just seems like a woe is me type thing always coming from you on all these planned trail runs. There are plenty of people that would go with you anytime and point you in the right directions!

I did my homework on walker, and I can't remember the guys name... but the last jeep like mine (small lift, not the greatest tires, Open / Open) had to be winched over everything. When I ran elbe, Everyone left the 1 guy with the broke down jeep and mudderx / me had to help him out. I'm not a chicken s**t, My jeep is a DD and I'm not gonna trash it and get left behind, Nor do I want to be that 1 GUY that holds the group up. I would be pissed if I had to constantly stop to winch someone. When I go on my 1 month break in September is when I will start hitting the harder trails, Then I wont have to rely on my rig every day and by then I hope to have a winch and a locked front end.

I can understand where your coming from on not wanting to drag the group down, something i seem to do on almost every trip, not by choice beleive me.
There are plenty of people who would gladly take you on a tour of some of these orv parks and not have to run the hardest wildest trails. If it was just one other post about you not being able to come because of your jeep then im sorry i pointed it out, just seemed like it happened often.
as for the elbe trip where branden got left behind, he didnt really. The trail rules fell apart where if your not last in the group and you dont see the guy behind you, say something or stop. We were not even a quarter mile up the trail from where he broke his ds, we were stopped there while alex took a driveshaft down to him and we got the news he wasnt fixable. We made a group decision to get all the jeeps off the trail with the kids in them. Rossi and buck came back down and finished helping him off the trail. No one was actually left behind.
Tell me what the point of 11 jeeps coming back down the trail after we got the kids out would have accomplished besides cluttering the hell out of the trail and making it impossible to turn around.
