Quirk ridge is doable in a stock jeep, but not something for the faint of heart. tow points and a spare tire should be mandatory ;)

Post by: MOABICON on October 03, 2013, 07:06:23 PM: I have learned "never" to give a completion time. There are tons
of reasons why things can not end "on time". I do know, the run
will not be over by 2p.m.

Post by: Elver on October 03, 2013, 07:28:46 PM: Yes, I know, but so far I heard three different trail names, it's possible to do one or two of them only or they are all in a sequence without any exit between them? I can go until certain point and leave earlier.

Post by: MOABICON on October 03, 2013, 08:13:27 PM: Ah.......well, you could do Top of the World and break off from there.
But....only if there are "zero" problems or misshaps. Your call. :o You
are certainly welcome. ;D

Post by: plaerzen on October 06, 2013, 12:43:11 PM: Hey Guys, I'm wondering if you're some of the jeeps I ran into while I was out there. Was driving a silver / muddy tracker with a winch on the front. Noticed a couple of Wranglers out there. Anyway, if it was you. Hi there. New to wheelin' in the Calgary area myself. Just got my first rig finally "finished" for now.
