        Well I've never been there. I am open to suggestions. I plan on wheeling both days. what do you guys suggest? I've heard some great things about the hammers and want to at least drive by them if not tackle them. I don't know what else is out there.

            on 33s you could do clawhammer. But any of the trails really require lockers and tons of body protection. I have done Sledge Hammer on 33s but it was a slow day. Cool trail though.

            If you have never been there, you really need someone to show you around, it cant get complicated. Good luck though. I WAS going to be out there this weekend, but plans changed. If you guys cant go this weekend you should come out to the FITD!

              Plan in stacking rocks, depending on your tire size will determine how many! Last time I did Claw it was tougher than Sledge, so plan accordingly. as for trail requirements I would recomend 35's, locked both ends and most importantly a good working WINCH. I'm sure you could make it with less however just depends on how hard you want to play and exersize the winch. Extra parts And armor, unless you like battle scars!

              Sunbonnet, Jack and the Johnson's are fun too, as well as Aftershock. There are also some dunes to play on, lots of variety.
