HARD ROCK TRAIL - Cougar Buttes

[dirtman13]

Chuck your wife got some good shots of the trail. Did you confirm your hub's condition?

Thanks Mike. Yes the hub exploded again. I will be replacing them with the Yukon hubs this time.

Chuck for the day's that you feel like going wild, stick a pair of drive slugs in. They are pretty quick to install at the trail head if need be

Thanks for all the great pictures! Almost as fun reliving through the pics as being there.

I didn't get much media on this trip but Tom who was riding with me got some video of Opy, so here it is!

Wow. Looks like an awesome day. I'm with Kurt, living through ya'lls posts. As soon as I get some time off work I'm going to get a little more lift on the JK and I'll have to make the trip out there to run this. I can't recall, is the weather still tolerable in May? This looks like a run that I'd be better off leaving the top at home.

Nice video. I love the use of epic score music.

Got the Yukon locks last night. Going to see how those do. Ever since I went with the Yukon Super Joints I have not broke a u-joint and I'm hoping for the same luck with these.

Thanks! Nothing like a little epic score to set the mood, (and a loop of "craps") lol.

Glad you see you got some new hubs already. I just noticed today that I didn't come out unscathed, somehow I bent my pitman arm. I wondered why the steering was feeling strange at the end of the day. I had just adjusted the steering stop to let me turn drivers a little more, the only thing I can think is that the spring caught the pitman when flexed up and bent it down. It gets pretty close sitting level. Anyway, new one on the way...

Nice video Jonah.

I think I'm going to have to go back out there on the 30th. so I don't forget the route. Any takers??

[jonah]

Thanks! I'll have to look into the 30th. I recorded a gpx track if you would like it.

Can it be posted in the GPS maping section?

[jonah]

Sure! I can post it up. I might clean it up a bit first as i took a few side loops.

I might be up for a run on the 30th!

Put together some video from my GoPro, I didn't get much and my battery died early in the day, I'm still learning so hopefully I will get better, just need to make more 4x4 trips

Great video Thomas - nice to see the first half of the trail on camera.

That pushes me over the top - Hard Rock trail next Sat. the 30th. Gotta put some more tracks on it.
