I have this thing for cream puff. I've never run it but I spend entirely too much time thinking about it. I've heard that for the last month or so the last 10-15' are just about impossible. It's always been hard but is it a lot harder now?

How does it look? Did anybody run it last weekend?
 
My next planned Harlan trip is early April. I had every intention of running it right after little jager on my last trip but I broke my upper control arm. (It's been redesigned now)

I'd run it but I heard it's 12' straight up vertical now, like somebody did it on purpose with a bulldozer. Did anybody check it out this weekend?
 
i like sam's club cream puffs! they come in athat white tub with the sticker on the side and OH-SO-DELICIOUS!

From what I could see from the bottom it looked about the same. There were a lot of rocks added to the base of the waterfall next door so there might have been some work done to CP as well. And about Little Jager! As I stood at the base looking up it after the MudDevil's show, even with all the work done to it last month to make it more accessible (read do-able) on the right side, brother that is "Death Wheeling"! I like to watch it but not me and my rig :)
 
The imnprovements made to Little Jagger didn't make it any easier from what I could tell. But I did see a full size cab truck make it when lots of others (buggys included) didn't make it. Of course that was Stump, he tends to try little harder.:lol:
We never went and looked at cream puff we spent a lot of time on new trails that had been cut. That place just keeps getting better. You want a real challenge go run Your Turn or the "bypass" out of it. The group we were with left around 3 grand worth of parts between the two, in about a 100ft section.
 
Little Jagger was a bitch. We saw Stumps run, very impressive.

I haven't found any pics of Your Turn or the bypass. Did anybody get some?

BTW, if cream puff isn't a challenge I'm not sure I can handle one. :eek:

I've got some video that I'm sure won't do it justice.
As for a challenge, what I meant was Cream Puff to me really requires no more skill than matting the gas at the bottom and hoping all the pieces stay together (same for Pony Hill too). Your Turn seems to require some actual driving skill and line picking.
 
where the hell are all this great trails? only been to harlan twice and ive never found any that werent on the map already
