I'd like to go! BUT - I can't leave until noon :oops:
Since the days are getting longer, might that still be OK?
This run is only a couple hours long & we should still be back on blacktop by 3-4 p.m.
Whadda think? :P Meet @ 11:30 & roll at noon?

Cool! Meet at 11:30 & roll at noon. :D Thanks!
This trail *can* be rowdy, stonerosan, but there are easier lines, or harder lines. It rates a 2+ I think. Any other opinions on this?

Lucy is spot on. If the Liberty made it a stock CJ7 will have no problems.

We made it back by going thru Trout Canyon. A little snow & mud up there.
So glad we turned around when we did, but sorry we missed the rest of the way down with the others.
But, we had fun up till that point!!! :D

Yeah, Thanks, Gregory for leading us on this ROWDY trail! :shock:

It was much more rowdy then I remembered from last fall. (I think it rated a 3+ today! :twisted: ) It was phenomenal to take Green Ruby beyond what I had ever attempted before~ and... thanks to great spotting (and supreme body armor!) we came out unscathed. I didn't take any photos today - those two guys that tagged along must have taken a zillion photos & they promised to forward them...

It was a great afternoon!!! Thanks, everyone!

:D
