I would say if they are 33s and mud terrains you should be okay. It's all about how you work the skinny pedal. Do you have proper front and rear tow points

Yes it was this year. Duratracs I'm sure will be great for this time of the year. I look forward to seeing you on Saturday

We were just talking about that.

It really depends on who shows up and what the conditions are like. We may have snow up there this weekend...

Yeah we can decide when we get out there but maybe we can run the one that you guys found.

There will be snow up there, and that trail we found..well lets hope the ice is really strong. I'm willing to try it regardless.

It is a really good idea to bring some axes, shovels, picks to break the ice.

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

That would be great if you can make it. Love the JK on 35s :)

Sorry guys, found a new hobby to enjoy for the winter at least (picked up a new ski doo 800 yesterday). Maybe I'll see you all again in the summer...

Sounds like a blast Jeff! We still have winter trails though out at Waiperous that are pretty fun if you get bored of that sled ;)
I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...

Maybe I missed it, I looked. What time are we meeting? at the store? fish east junction?

How abnout at the store for 9? Sunrise isn't until 8:30.

I like John's idea of doing Quirk Ridge. It's been a while since I've been up there, and this dusting of snow will probably add some interest factor to it. If we finish super-early, we can also run the North side of McLean Ridge.
