Joe,
I definitely value your opinion, you did get me up the waterfalls at eagle after all
It is 4WD and I've taken him through some crappy washes in the past. I carry enough recovery gear and am confident that my rubi could drag him out of a wash if needed. I'm pretty sure we will be doing the trail down to the water and we might drive over to eagle and check it out but I don't think we will run it.
Thanks,
Bill
Oh, since it's 4WD, all the trails should be good for him to go on including the gravel parts of the washes. I had to strap out a Mercury Grand Marquis out of the lower part of Eagle Wash once. He was buried up to his bumper trying to turn around...
He realized he was doing something his vehicle just wasn't meant to do. I just didn't want to see something like that happen and put a damper on your day. But a 4WD CR-V should be fine.
I'd be leary about running the upper part of Eagle Wash where you went up the waterfall. I'd still worry about dragging the bottom end of the belly and maybe rockers. It would probably be best to follow your gut and not run it like you said. But then again...Hell, what do I know??? LOL Mike went down the rock waterfall then up the easier part with his slightly built Geo Tracker.
He made it look easy!!!
When you go, take some pics. I will be a sight to see. Not too many people wheel their CR-V's ya know...
