Hell Hole

Postby ATV'er » Sun Sep 07, 2008 8:25 am

What a great trail. I was impressed with it. I read on other forum boards that it wasnt to hard but it was actually pretty tough in a few areas. I pinch flatted my brand new big horns on the rear so with 3-4 plugs in the tire we made it back out. Brett did great for only having 2 wheel drive. Certain parts are alot like the Rubicon. The best part was we never saw another person up there wheeling. Check out the pictures.

On the way back out. Yes that is a winch line. Figured I would take it easy after blowing out a tire and I winched brett up at the same time

Wow, I can't believe you did that to your tire!! How much air were you running?? Think the plugs are going to hold?

Yeah, that looks pretty much like I remember. It's just a short trail is all, but with obstacles like that, short is good. :)

I was running 3.5 lbs recomended by Ken. I did it out on the sand and happend to catch one rock that was in the sand just right. Im trying to decide if I just want to patch it from the inside or order another new tire. I am leaning towards a new tire and patching it if I don't have it in time for next weekend.

Dude...you had to be going fast to do that or just really unlucky....I've got 1000 miles on my BigHorns...running between 3 and 4...mostly 3.5 and never a pinch.

Just unlucky. I was going 10 - 15in the sand and hit one unlucky rock. I did the exact same thing when I got the 589's.

Did not fish there but should of. Fished a creek on the way back though but did not do any catching.
