It worked pretty well for me. I am satisfied with the 1 ton axle upgrade.

How's your Jeep doing?

The trails I remember running were Lower Rock Garden, Rail Bed, Lion's Den, Middle Rock Garden, Grapevine, Mason Jar, and Your Turn.

Your Turn was a beast at the top. Larry Smith was first in line, and he said it had changed a lot since he was there in April. The first big rock ledge near the end had slid down hill a little ways from where he saw it last. That created a couple of ledges you had to climb, followed by holes you fell into.

Larry had to winch from the first ledge all the way to the top, changing winch points several times. The rest of us winched up the ledge on the right (which was like a waterfall with all the rain they had gotten) and took the bypass to the road.

Here's a pic of Larry on the first rock that had shifted down hill.

He had to winch there in April too! Maybe he should stick to the easier, old man trails

Seems I remember another old man winching there too, actually, several old men!

True I won't be following him anymore ;(

That's the first time I had been on Your Turn, but he said it had changed since he was there last.

We had that discussion in Harlan. RK's rig is a full blooded Toyota Land Cruiser. I saw the registration card!

Your Turn

I seem to remmeber about 4" of water running in April also. The exit has gotten much worse now. The ledge to the right is the way to exit.
The exit at Lion's Den has gotten a little harder also. The step out is tough when it is wet. A lot of soil has washed away making the steps much greater now.
