Completed: November 20, 2010 Badlands in Attica IN

[HARDTRAILZ]

Going on a run with JK-Forum guys and girls. Planning to be there when it opens and usually run all day. Moderate trails. There are a good amount of bypasses, but this is a trip with some newbies...seem to be built well, but no real offroad experience. May be a good time to tag-a-long if you want to learn or play. I think a dozen rigs planning to attend at this point. I would advise armor for the radiator at least. I did it without, but Mike can attest that it was not so nice to my cooler even with a steel tube protecting it. bring a lunch and we usually eat back in the parking area. There is camping onsite and my buddy may have his RV there Friday night.

I will try and get a bunch of pics. I know there will be some serious obstacles tried by a coupe people with new stuff done to their Jeeps. Even though it is out of my league, it is cool to see and learn. Should be 3 or more winches along for the day just in case.

Ya. i was talking myself in and out of it, but the wife said she would go and one of the guys I grew up with is making the trip with his new lift and 35s on his JK and since it is his first real wheeling I want to be along.

Dec 4th is also the toys for tots i think, and last year we did right after the 1st. I am off until the 4th this year so may do it again.

Will try and pre-plan better for those runs.

Just finished looking at some pics on the website looks like a very fun place. It would be to long of a drive up from NC for me, well have fun.

Some pics... Had 16 JK's and me. split into 3 groups and did alot of trails. Was completely different than normal being really dry. Definitely had fun.

Not my pics yet, but my buddy's






























Tight squeeze. Little weight added by buddies on bumper and made it through with a little scratching on the roof...



My buddy gave it a valiant effort but snapped a shaft in his 4 on this climb. Guess I get to help tear apart his rearend this week...

Hoping to set up something for us soon. I was pretty good on remembering trails so I feel alot more comfy on organizing. I led some Sat and did not have to turn around anywhere.
