BFE & Behind The Rocks

On Saturday while the rest of the group was laying on the couch, eating chocolate bon-bons and watching Oprah, I was hard at work finding a way to drive our RZRs off-road to BFE and Behind The Rocks. Today, we used my super-secret route to ride both (almost).

Here's Mell thinking about running Black Flag on BFE...


Fortunately, "reason" prevailed over "valor" which considering the following description of the trail was probably a good idea:  
  • Trail Rating: Expert trail. No Exceptions
  • Description: Do not attempt without a day to spend and at least three vehicles. NOTE: Nobody has completed this trail!
  • Requirements: Min. 40″ tires, Lockers, Winch, spare parts, SPOTTERS and 3 Vehicles – Do not attempt alone!

However, here's a video of the "big dogs" conquering the first obstacle on Behind The Rocks...



In the process of exploring a new area Behind The Rocks, we discovered another arch...


On the way back from the arch, Gene's machine snapped a ball joint, which considering we were in the middle of nowhere and it's Sunday and the Labor Day weekend, was not good...


Fortunately, a local business that rents RZRs had a replacement part so that we were able to repair the vehicle on the trail and get everyone back home before dinner (clean living pays off once again).
