3 CAT scans a MRI and some time with the shrink and it's comfirmed. I'm just not right in the head.

Was thinking of going to Barrett, but never been there before and if I end up being a loner then I'd prefer a trail I know.
One of my buddy's :pokinit: is broken down and haven't heard back from anyone else I usually run with.

You should head up to Fordyce - we got a big group heading up. I wouldn't touch the 'Con with a ten foot pole during Jambo weekend.

Never been there, but have been wanting to go.

I'm taking my DD on this trip. It's running on 36" TSL's and open diffs. I know Fordyce is running high this year. How bad is the force of the water? I've buried my tires in water before so that's not a problem, but like to keep it out of the cab if possible. any idea about how deep it may be running?

I'm told it'll be a minimum of 250 CFS this weekend.. which is kinda strong. Most likely you'll get water in the cab even with 36's. You're right, it's running high this year. We're going to check on Friday though and see if we can find out for sure the flows though.

Thanks for the info.

Maybe I'll have to head out there in a few months when the flows is lower. Or if you you guys have plans to go out again before that and I have my trailer rig done I could take it. It's on 38" with lockers and the water can flow through all it wants.

Thanks again.
