I know Michael (JMS)has, I think he almost did a back flip on that trail?

Coyote is more along the lines of Upper Heldorado. Tight with big rocks with very few "big climbs". IMO it is a true rock crawling trail. Great fun. I think one of the best out there.
Pritchett with Behind the rocks is fun. If you stick to your guns I think behind the rocks can be done as fast as the group would travel the main road. The key is to stay small and not stop.

OK, lets nail down the hardcore trails at least and go from there.
Where should we meet on Sunday for the Coyote trail, I have not run this so have no idea where it is located?
Area BFE Friday -- Meet at area BFE parking lot @ 9AM?
Pritchett Saturday -- Meet at the city market @ 8AM?
Coyote Sunday -- Meet at ??? @ 9AM?

For Coyote we should just meet up at Area BFE. The trail is closer to the highway but I feel better about leaving the Tow rig sitting at Area BFE next to the highway.
Should we have an alternate hardcore run for Saturday in case Pritchett starts getting too big?
What about 2 start times?miniwally said:
I don't know the trail, but from what I've heard it's usually the rigs that haven't done the trail that back things up. Maybe an early start time for the un-initiated, and a start time a couple of hours later for the experienced.
Sounds good to me about the meeting place, times look good for everyone?

Might not be a bad idea, although I think a lot of people like to have one big run together as kind of a "CK5 event run", but I am open for ideas and if it makes the runs more manageable I'm all for it.
Ideas for alt hardcore run?

I am going with the flow here too . I just wanna wheel and I can't bring a truck with no seat time with me ( if its even together
) , so its Sheetmetal Gang again
James, the thing is those are the trails that Micheal and the rest of us ran last year. I think - and understandably so - he wants to do something different this year.jiminycricket said:

Thursday may be too late to wheel , but I am there Monday so I am up for wheeling . The Az guys did the light thing and had lunch at what seemed like the top of the world to me on Monday last year . Good time . I am up for something Monday for sure

Maybe a good alternate would be Rusty Nail?
I think the meeting times are okay but I think a departure time for the group would be better.
I am kinda an early riser these days so I wouldn't mind leaving for the trail at the times posted. That means rigs fueled, food bought etc.
I get really fed up with the; I just need to go here and they are going there and then somebody else decides they want to air down at the trail head. Be ready to frickin' go and do it on time.

Hell's, Fins, Gold Bar, and Sevenmile Rim ought to be fine with open diffs, same for Metal Masher, can't comment on Porcupine rim, although Max said it wouldn't be too great with open axles and shiny sheetmetal. For Golden Spike, I'd like to see one locker - I don't think it would be too much fun open. But it also depends a little on the number of vehicles. So it would be very helpful if we could get a count. If I'm the only one that wants to go on 'Spike on Sunday, I might have to change plans. I'm flexible, and, by the way, I'm over the 'I-absolutely-have-to-run-the-hardest-trail' thing. If we have only a small number of open rigs, we can probably handle a trail that's a little more difficult. But going on a trail that's better driven with a locker is no fun if 75% of the rigs are open. So it's a numbers game...
Hey JMS, here's a heads up in case your keeping a list.
Jiminycricket: 77 longbed, TBI, 1/2 ton axles, one locker up front, open rear, 3.73's on 33" tires and 2" lift.
In a perfect world that would be awesome, but...miniwally said:I get really fed up with the; I just need to go here and they are going there and then somebody else decides they want to air down at the trail head. Be ready to frickin' go and do it on time.

I will be with the mall crawlers also.
6" lift, 37" Krawlers, 14 bolt rear with detroit, welded 3/4 ton 10 bolt front upgraded shafts, 4:10 gears
, Hopefully the healthy small block under the hood.

That's what I was thinking. I wanted to run that again, it's been like 4 years since I've been there.
