DATE EXTENDED TO THE END OF JUNE!

Please help Marlin Crawler and the 4WD Club of Fresno vote the Dusy/Ershim trail as this year's Outstanding Trail from BFGoodrich. BFGoodrich has nominated our very own Dusy/Ershim trail for work projects, new toilets, maintaining campgrounds, cleanups, and trail signage, but we need more votes! You may vote once per day per IP address until the contest ends May 31st. Please vote every day! Thank you very much!!
Please click here to vote daily:

>> http://bfgoodrichtrails2011.outdoorhub.com <<

You may vote once per day per IP (device), so please vote multiple times per day!
Contest ends May 31st!

The Dusy/Ershim trail is the most beautiful trail we've ever wheeled on, spanning 33 miles between two national wildernesses, it features numerous high mountain meadows, creeks, 6 natural lakes, and beautiful panoramic views at over 10,200 feet elevation. The Fresno 4WD Club has maintained the trail and worked with the Sierra Nevada National Forest since 1954 to care for and preserve this amazing trail. Please vote every day! Thank you!

Here is the official website for the trail:

WTF is blanca peak anyway?


Blanca Peak is out here in Colorado.  Its a great trail with views similar to Dusy/Erisham.  I have wheeled it many times, unfortunately it has had one of the better obstacles removed due to a few people doing dumb things causing them to roll off the obstacle about 500 feet down, including at least one death I know of.
Tungsten isn't filler material!  Quit dippin' it!


Some people are like a slinky....not really good for anything, but they sure can make you smile when you shove them down the stairs!

Yeah, their 24-hour period is weird. I haven't figured it out yet but I believe it resets each day around 5 pm PST.

Thanks for all the votes guys!! :driving: When you go wheel Dusy you'll have 4 more top of the line toilets to use! :driving:

I've been voting at home and at work everyday Mike.   :thumbs:


Next time I come down that way, we need to plan a trip.  I was supposed to go with Dean when I came down in 2006, but it was still closed, when we did the Coyote Lake trip.  And it opened the following weekend. 
Miss ya Dean (4THEWKN) & Kyle (KYOTA)!!

4THEWKN~9/17/2006  If it wasn't for you, I'd be driving something other than a Toyota!

It didn't, it just has a smaller percentage of the total votes.
