This past Sat. was a great day to be out there and the trail is fantastic, be a while before I would ever do it again though.

Thanks to Sy & Nate for all the help and spottin. Seven rigs went in and seven came out but a little worse for wear.

CrazyCasey limped out in three WD, five rigs broke, two axles, one hub, three drive shafts...DIE HARD sure lived up to it's name.

Here's a few pics.

This was my first time on this trail, it is in the Table Mesa area off I-17 north of Phoenix. I doubt I could find it again and not sure I would want too....:idontknow:

The BlueBird had to do a little landscaping before we left and it cost a drive shaft.
