Sacramento/Foothills Area Trail Run Oct. 28 2017

How long did it take you guys on the trail?

Roughly 5 hours~6hours(?) from the start of the trail, to the very end of the trail...? The problem is getting there from 88 takes some time, and we didn't really keep track of that.. LOL

I'll have to check the GPS track I recorded to get the details... will try to remember to post it later today/tonight... depends on how good Game 7 is :)

So I tracked from the meet up point in Jackson through both trails to the end point on FR5 (Mormon Emigrant Rd) just south east of Sly Park... track says about 6.5 total hours w/ about 5.2 hours of movement.
 
Awesome! thanks for pulling that together Matt.

It was a good trip - glad we made it out. Im already looking forward to the next time ...
No worries.

I'm glad we did the trail, minus getting home extremely exhausted... Hopefully next time I'm well rested before getting out.

I'm already waiting for your PM asking if I'm down to go wheeling. :hungry:

Thanks for setting that up again :)

Had to turn around for a lot of downed logs that we weren't prepared for.

OK... lets see if this will work... I exported the track from Sat ... saved it as a .kmz file... but cant attach those, so zipped it to attach (its below the attached picture of the track)... should be able to view the .kmz in Google Earth or other mapping software (or online in a viewer like KML, KMZ Viewer with Drive).

No, havent done Barrett... *yet* I think I'd like to... but pretty sure I need bigger tires and locker... not to mention a little more experience.[/QUOTE]


Tires and definitely armor too. I ran it last Saturday for the first time. It was more difficult then the rubicon. I know a lot of the t4r guys do some crazy stuff with their IFS rigs tho .
Had to stack rocks and push a open open Cherokee on 35s.
If anyone has enough armor it should definitely be next on the list.

Noted... will have to see what I can come up with... Im getting anxious for the snow to start dumping, putting the snowboard rack on, and getting fresh turns in the pow!
Haha hopefully the snow doesn't come in too soon, so we can get another trail run in.

Although, i'm excited for some fresh powder! woot!

You beat me to posting pictures... yours are all better than mine, so probably better that way :)
My photos look mediocre.. haha

Ehh.... You're on 37's and those rocks look massive.. Can't imagine doing it with 31's.

Well.. at least it looks like a good place to test out sliders, and bang them up. :nod:
