Cool trip. Glad I was with Shawn to watch/assist him getting up 73 because there was not much else that was interesting on the trails.

I'm not sure pictures do it justice. That was a gnarly trail! No way to get up it without winching.
You kind of have to look at the pictures while leaning over to get a sense of the incline...

I most certainly would not have made it without you and Dominic helping. The pics never do it justice. It was a pretty cool climb. Between that and the route we took out of Bearwallow back to I-77, I would say it was worth the drive.

OK, time for a UT checkin since there's been WAY too much NC crap posted on this thread recently. We took Fat Ninja's hemorrhoid out for it's maiden voyage to Zion National Park and camped Saturday night. @UNC Rubicon it's OK to be jealous, I'd be if I were you. Yes, that was like a 6 point Buck that walked within 20' of me in the pic only to be followed by two more buck and then about 10 doe. Unreal out here, it's like a fairy tale in some of these places. OK, I'm done rubbing it in.
I do miss you guys even people like Bret that we never got to wheel with. Can't wait for this summer to wheel with some of you!!!!

The Spider-Man helmet is my favorite part of this picture.
OK, I'm going to say it since no one else is. Regarding the helmet... wait, what the heck is going on... some sort of filter is being applied to my brain right now and I can't type the funny all be it inappropriate thing I was going to just type. What the heck is going on around here!!!! Abort post, abort post...

Helmets are required at Bearwallow. Guess someone died and this is how they’ve managed to keep the trail system open.

Its hilarious that Dominic embraced the idea of wearing the helmet.

Exactly. He bought that kid’s Spider-Man helmet at Dicks the day before and wore it the whole time. It was pretty funny. I think he plans to return it.

it actually came in handy because we all slipped several times crawling around that trail.

Looks good man. Did you take the spare off to keep below Gross Weight? Lol.

Ah ha! I didn't know that.

Lol, sort of... even with a 4" drop hitch the tire made it difficult to to hook up the trailer because the tire would be just enough in the way to make you cuss. With the tire off I can literally back it right up to the ball dead on using the camera and then just crank it down. Then throw in the 120 lbs I'm saving and also the clearance I'm gaining for when we wheel and the beautiful view out of my rear window and I'm 99.999% committed to a spare tire delete. I like the Artec one personally. Funny thing is I love the look of the spare especially on Kimberly's.

Let me know how you like it. I’ll be picking up that one later this year but not until Black Friday so my wallet can recover and hoping for 20% off like they did this past year.

I was pleased with the cost... $404... $450 - 10%. I was able to get the one without the spare tire notch which is $50 cheaper than the one with.
