      When and where is everybody meeting up? I've never been there but would love to go. Are there any special requirements for this trail?

        What works best is being lifted with 33's as a minimum or lifted with 31's and lockers, again as a minimum.

          What trails are you guys planning to run on Saturday? I did Bullfrog recently and have done John Bull and Calico, but not really looking to do stuff more difficult at this point.

            Bullfrog is all I am looking to conquer as the Jeep is my DD too.

              So I'm assuming then 5 inches of lift 33's, lockers front and rear should be ok then?

                That should work perfect for Bullfrog and Cakewalk. I'm not totally sure what Curtis has in mind though.

                  Outstanding!! I have seen some video and had some minor reservations about running it without issues. Thanks!

                    Rick,

                    You saw my jeep up at Cleghorn. How do you think it would do at Bullfrog? Some videos I saw looked pretty rough and some looked easy so I'm guessing it's somewhere in the middle???

                      There are bypasses to most of the obstacles.

                        Are they doing Bullfrog? I asked earlier if it's going to be Bullfrog or a different trail. There's more than one trail out there unless Cougar Buttes is the same as Bullfrog?

                        For Bullfrog, you'll be fine. The key part to Bullfrog when I did it a few months ago was great spotting. Most of us hadn't done it, but the trail leader had and gave great direction. You're locked front and rear and have plenty of armor so you'll be fine.

                        When we did it, we had one guy puncture a tire side wall (BFG MT), but had no other issues.

                          Just found out I do not have to work Sat afterall so I would like to tag along. Just bought an 07 JK and put a 3.5" lift on it. Still running stock
                          31" tires and no lockers yet. If it gets too crazy I will just take the bypasses. Don't want to hold the group up too much. Should be fun.
                          I Jeep, therefore I am

                                mkjeepers (Mike) is the one that built all the trails out there. So you have the best person there is to lead you on the trails.
