ERMAHGERD those shots got me freakin jacked up !!!

We could ask the BLM if it is okay. 

I did a dune clean up a few years ago and posted signs for directions and nobody said anything about it but seems like things have changed up there since then so its always good to cover ourselves.

By June deadmans might be pretty tame especially if the rails get down in there and knock it down pretty good.  I remember driving by there in February or March a couple of years ago and you couldn't even get onto Road 6E or whatever it is from Hwy 125 because there was so much snow.

This is what it looked like that year in June:

I need sand tires....

Give Sandtoyz Unlimited a call!  Tell them you are on the forum.

I got 21x8x12 bead to bead buffed (lightened) Skat Trak Extremes with Douglas 8x8 blue labels for around $350

If you are close to stock I wouldn't go over a 7 paddle hauler, preferable a 6 paddle.  Once you hit 60+ hp you will have to go up in paddles or go to extremes.  I started ripping my new haulers and went to extremes.  Do NOT run a 20" tire at Walden you will hate life.

This is a video of our group letting the supermoto guys cut their teeth on a fairly easy hill climb .  Scooters and myself catching quads.  Used to be a cliff where we were climbing.

Alright since Aaron has twisted my arm, I have to see if I can get some vacation time swapped around to see if I can make it.

YAY!            

[disco]

huh!  I didn't update this.  I DID get a weeks vacation switched around.  I am in!

We had really bad weather a week ago, ice everywhere.  Read there was 100 wrecks in a 4 hour span then 1000 wrecks in a 24 hour span.  People at work calling in sick left and right.  Both freeways going north were shut down a little ways north.  Well I showed up and first thing asked a supervisor if he minded switching a week for me.  He whipped out the vacation book, looked it up, I signed the new week and he punched it in the computer on the spot.

Sweet danno

If everything goes well, I hope to make it to Walden the first part of May.  If so, I will take some pics, post em up here.  With that much snow this year, "Somewhere between 125 and 150 inches this year so far,"  should be a nasty runoff.  I need to get out and ride

Damn I wish it was June.

[Colorado700R]

I have a weather app on my phone that I use to watch the weather at Walden, it's continued to snow like crazy lately

keep me in mind MO. Still pretty unsure, but if I can split the ride, the decision will be easier. 

THough not sure how out of the way It would be to meet up.
