anyone has any idea on the condition @ bald...??

some begginner wants to run the trail but dont want to be stuck in the snow or mud...

88_Pathy · April 16, 2008, 08:19:27 AM

Just have them go with a person with a built rig. But I would imagine as of 2 weeks ago there is still lots-o-snow.

madmanweaver444 · April 21, 2008, 07:38:00 PM

any new conditions updates
anyone gone recently

lucky7 · April 22, 2008, 05:35:28 PM

Thinking saturday huntington didn't have much snow when i saw it on the news might make it to the top.

nu106 · April 22, 2008, 08:01:55 PM

I should have my rig running this weekend, If anyone is gonna run Bald let me know.

Joey88RUNR · April 22, 2008, 08:32:28 PM

Me and a few friends will be up there, not this weekend but the following weekend. we got the clovis rodeo this weekend!

madmanweaver444 · April 24, 2008, 10:15:49 AM

how much snow will up there still this or next weekend

88_Pathy · April 24, 2008, 04:17:53 PM

Memorial weekend is a trip to Jose Basin put on by Hang em High. I would hit that up and see what you can make your truck do. It is an easy trail but has super tough sections that you can watch built rigs get denied on. Plus tons of people to help you when you get stuck.

madmanweaver444 · April 24, 2008, 05:38:30 PM

hey that sounds fun thanks for the info

as for my truck here is my new member thread

also is jose basin open year round or whats the deal on that

Weak-Link · April 25, 2008, 10:01:27 AM

Most of Jose Basin closes from November to to April during the wet season, the only road open is 9S09(I think) during that time.

lucky7 · April 25, 2008, 05:53:38 PM

90% heading to bald tommorrow anyone down.

madmanweaver444 · April 25, 2008, 06:59:29 PM

lucky7 · April 26, 2008, 04:49:20 PM

Still snow didn't bother realy checking the trail but maybe a couple more weeks.

88_Pathy · April 27, 2008, 01:48:18 PM

Did you go to the bridge?

lucky7 · April 28, 2008, 05:03:04 PM

Yeah bridge is melted down but still some big patches and icey so i didn't realy bother i was solo so didn't need any headaches.Couple runs ago i busted a bead, air tank and power steering line fun.

lucky7 · April 30, 2008, 06:41:03 AM

A winch and some friends you might make the tower, but i don't realy know i turned around.

Joey88RUNR · April 30, 2008, 05:31:16 PM

I take it you turned around becuase of trail condition?

lucky7 · April 30, 2008, 07:48:29 PM

Yeah it's patchy and rutted and in the ice that's no fun.

paulybee · April 30, 2008, 08:29:00 PM

If you bring enough

anything can be fun.
I'm itch'n to go give it a try. I got my tranny shifting right and want to see how it'll do this time.
If my Saturday stays open and my buddy is down, I may see you guys up there.

lucky7 · April 30, 2008, 10:18:32 PM

What ended up being the problem with you're tranny my auto has been acting up kinda wondering what to do or where to take it here in town keeps having problems on the 4 lane.

paulybee · May 01, 2008, 08:28:22 PM

I got the 340H. It wasn't shifting right. I did some reseach and found out it was probably the solenoids. I was getting a code through my OD light. Never could figure it out. I ended up just changing the fluid, putting in a new filter, and put a bottle of additive in it. I haven't had a shifting problem since. It's been over a month now.

Joey88RUNR · May 02, 2008, 04:22:04 PM

Well I dont think we are gonna make it to bald tomorro I dont want to go alone and everyone backed out on me so maybe next weekend.

FILDO · May 04, 2008, 03:01:09 PM
