Tuttle Creek ORV Run 150+ pictures.

[82355]

Next Sunday (January 15, 2012) we are planning a trip to Tuttle Creek. A few guys from Nebraska, mostly in full size GM's. Was just checking to see if there was any interest from any of the members on here.

No interest form any of the Northern Kansas guys?

I'd consider it if I had more notice and if it wasn't my anniversary...

Be sure to post up pics.

The following hundred or so pictures are from a local sight. I just copy/pasted my friend's thread from there over to here, complete with his pictures and his captions. He is the same fellow who road home with me when I purchased my Blazer in California. He is responsible for the 300+ pictures in that thread as well.

I hope you guys enjoy them.

Beautiful morning on US 77.

Southbound.

This is a breakfast dispenser in Randolph, KS.

Back window

Decal detail

Some old farmer drove his nice '68 Galaxie down for coffee.

Off-loading

Late arrival

Jeep people

Warming up

This is a neat Toyota.

Big bore kit.

Wheelie time

These look like fun

Ride 'em, cowboy.

Seth's Toyota

Baker's K15

Martin's K5

John's K30

Now, on to the trails...

This guy was having fun.

This guy was hauling ass.

He carried those front wheels most of the way up this hill.

They ended up dragging this thing most of the way up this hill.

Baker was climbing right along.

There he went.

And there he stopped.

Broken Chevy, go figure.

His Z-bar popped off, which was about a 15 minute fix.

I don't usually care much for flatbeds, but I like this one.

Back on the road (never mind the saftey sling)

Humping rocks in the Toyota.

The K15 gives it a shot.

Up and over, no problem.

Up and over with this posed a bit more of a struggle.

This is the Big Blue River valley.

The family Jeepster.

This is what John Ebke thinks about Jeeps.

 

[82355]

Popped a bead on the ledges.

Pit bikes putted around.

Everyone looked on intently at the flattened Blazer.

4-wheelin'

Family time on the ledges.

Hole 1

Hole 2

Hole 3

Having fun.

Meanwhile, other people burned up dead dinosaur bones climbing over dead dinosaur ****.

Hard at it.

Oh, hi John.

Spin 'em, Hillbilly.

There you go.

Like a Rock.

Go go Toyota pickup

He makes it look easy.

We were helping Marty re-seat his bead.

We made a pit stop back at the parking area to re-seat flats and grill some weiners.

 

[82355]

Don't try this at home.

Don't try this at home, either.

Marty is about to give it a good kick as Wade prepares to operate the air pump.

Then this thing arrived.

And so did this guy.

What an odd looking machine.

Little kids having fun.

Smile for mom.

Futuristic, man.

It was a lovely afternoon in northern Kansas.

Air traffic

Hill traffic

Bank traffic

Creek traffic

Waste not, want not.

This was the coolest 6 year old in the park.

Oh, hi Marty.

Down the rocks.

He's about to go boom. (not pictured)

 

[82355]

Low-rider.

Sasquatch sighting

Close quarters

It's a good looking truck.

This was actually a really steep loosely-rocked hill, not a gently curving rock path.

This thing is big.

It climbs over stuff.

It couldn't climb over this, though. Kept spinning.

Marty appreciates my photography only after the fact.

He bitched out and took the easy path around the rocks instead.

Cock pit

Pair of pliers

Pair of trees

The CA K5 doesn't mess around.

I got whipped on the arm a few times by these

Gives it that fresh cedar scent.

 

[82355]

Well there's Jake again.

I'm a Dapper Dan man

Bottom of the hill

Easy does it

Here comes Marty, look out.

This is a good looking vehicle.

Here comes Jake.

Not bad for 2WD

Martin decided he wanted to wash his truck.

Ice breaker.

Here he goes.

No doors

and not a drop of mud on him.

Another pair of trees.

 

[82355]

Slightly customized from the car wash.

Down

On

Squish

It was really hard to get these both in the frame, as I was up against the edge of a 5' deep mud hole behind me.

Drip.

Hey, let's test the load limit of Hillbilly's endgate straps.

I guess we found it.

Martin assesses the situation from a safe distance.

Pair of fenders

Silly spaceship, you can't fly over that tree.

Flex from a coil spring.

Flex from a leaf spring.

More flex.

And more.

And still some more.

Back to the ledges we went.

Jake gives it a shot. He was unsuccessful.

Some stranger in a fancy Jeep

 

[82355]

These were 42" tires on 20" wheels.

Ouch.

Another stranger's Jeep.

The Jeep boys lined up for a family photo.

Say cheese.

One last try for Marty.

Finally made 'er.

Photo-op.

I like the Toyota kid in this one.

Baker's K15 and Martin's K5

Jacob's K20 and John's K30

Captain Kirk's K10

Domination: successful

Not a bad looking bunch of rigs if I do say so myself.

The crew.

Bike 1

Bike 2

We aired up before hitting the road.

End

Isn't this the top of Denise Butt's hill? If so I lost a couple antenna's up there. Funny thing is we found one of my radio antenna's down there this summer .
