Memorial Day weekend is the only weekend I can’t go in May. Well unless something changes at work.

An earlier week in May would be better for me too, but I’d rather go with a group. Solo rides are nearly as fun.

This sounds lovely, but that last week of May is usually when I fly out to pickup my kid and with Covid I missed having him over this past summer. I will be looking at this thread but can't commit at this time.

I would love to know more about this story... Are those u-bolts in the picture?

I’m on a Windrock Facebook group and this was posted Saturday. Female driver coming down some rock ledges and panicked, hit the gas and ended up down a hill and into some small trees. She’s ok but as of now I think the Jeep is still on the trail. The guys trying to get it off the trail said it broke at a cast piece and snapped the axle shaft in two. Whatever she hit, it did a number on the axle.

I’m trying to figure out what ledge it would be to cause panic . Unless they were running the trail backwards and coming down the hill climb that would normally be at end of trail.

I watched the video several times and can’t figure out exactly where she was, but does look like she was running the trail backwards and going down the hill climb areas.

Thanks for sharing the video. It didn’t look as bad as I expected it was for the damage. Makes sense why on the axle seems to be destroyed.
