Holy Cross - August 1st, 2008


Jeff making this climb look easy!


Jared and his new buildup doing well


Up and over


Dale and his ultra-clean truck!


Eric sporting the new 6" front stretch and Pitbulls


Kyle working up the ledge


Jeff on the far right line of French Creek


Issac and his 4Runner crossing French Creek


Wheelstand out of the creek!


Jared back down


Andy rocking Eric's YJ down the ledge


Pretty ugly without the front fenders and multi-tone paint 


Cory and his well-tested Toyota.


Jeremiah and custom 85 4Runner


BV Carnage -  August 2nd, 2008


At the trailhead


Tough line for a short wheelbase rig!



Sideways in V-Notch.  A little windshield frame damage and some scratches to the cage is all that resulted


Big ledge that eats crossmembers.  Good thing for the flatbelly.


Cory spotted me through the squeeze.  I couldn't make it...... (notice the height of the rock on the driver's side)


So he had me just drive over it 


Very tough spot on this trail


Cory shows us the squeeze line.


Jeremiah follows


The exit.  Worst part about this trail.  The rock in the middle of this picture wasn't there last year and made the exit climb way tougher than last year.


Eric's home free!


Hunting for traction on those dirt-covered rocks

Next up was Carnage

That trail has become nasty, everything is getting more and more dug out (not that I'm complaining  ).







Everyone stopping just before the V-Notch





As soon as I saw the group in front of us I knew we were in for some fun







Then it was our turn!

More pics from DIRTCO on Yotatech

Here's a few pictures of the exit of Carnage.  A large boulder had rolled into the middle and made it almost impossible to get up.  Cory did make it up but it took a lot of pulling, pushing and a few well placed rocks (and some amazing driving, of course ) .

We try to hold the event every year.  We had one guy from OK come out for the weekend.  It's usually held @ the first part of Aug.

As much as I love CO and the wheeling it offers, Moab still would be my first choice.  If you've never been to Moab, I'd suggest it.  CO is only several more hours east than Moab (1.5 hours to Grand Junction, 6 hours to Denver).  If you were going to make a trip out this way, I'd suggest both
