IFS rock fest 20100328 (Aftershock)

[troyboy162]

well dang that was an adventure!. Jen (Yotagirl) once explained to me that the hammers were "non-stop" and that is surly fitting of aftershock. the trail is obviously doable but man and machine are pushed hard. when it takes 7 hours to go two miles that should pretty much tell the story.

we were unable to complete the the last obstical with the sunlight remaining. id image it would be also doable on 33" but more of a winching/recovery/trail engineering event then wheeling.

not much carnage surprizingly
-few minor rock kisses
-one broken cv
-one dented gas tank

video/pics coming

Annnnddd....surprise surprise, we turned around at depreciation.. I would have tried it, but the big truck we had with us didn't want to go the top to winch us up..

Jealous guys... Looks like it was a fun trail, we don't have terrain like that out here!

[YotaGirl]

Nice video, Troy! I like Aftershock, it's a fun trail.

Kregg: Come on out to CA for a visit! I just got myself a new house out in Apple Valley on 5 acres, with an 1800sqft shop! Borrow a motorhome or camper and come park it at the ranch. Joe and I will take you to all the cool spots.! :)
