No worries slow junk! It will be muddy just stay away from the holes that swallow up full size trucks. I there's an obstacle you're worried about bypass it. No shame in in that! We all want to drive ou rigs home

This run is all about offroading. Reason why we build these rigs. We (those of you who are in DDO) aren't a car club. We don't go for looks. We build our XJs to wheel them, like they should be. We do push our rigs but they are all daily drivers. Do if feel like driving a broken rig to work, of course not, even though I have done it before. As for Saturday, we are probably going to hit up trail 1 in the morning, break for lunch and then tackle trail 10, we might even switch it up and do trail 10 in the morning. Slowjunk, do worry about breaking stuff, the guys who are going know what they are doing and will spot you if needed. Put the big boy pants on and lets do this. Should be a muddy good time.
Also, I'm thinking of another build party soon.

Yeah those holes are all ya gotta worry about. I have a video on my phone of my buddy's Ram on 38's hitting one from the last time we were there. But other than that everything will work out. Hell I made it through most of the stuff when I was on a 2" BB and some pretty bald 31s.
LOL its good to know to stay away from the big hole. i was curious cuz i never went on a trail before just mudding at an open field that's all

Some of us will be Meeting at "Moparboys" house in Genoa and taking route 23. City guys can meet up somewhere and convoy to Cliffs. I think 355 south to 80 west is the route from the city.

Where are you located, slowjunk? I take 55 to 80 west then I take the Seneca exit. Google map it.
I like getting there early so look for a red rig with a snorkel or a bald Asian guy. I stick out like a sore thumb. Lol
