Pucker Fest 2016 is almost here! On July 30th & 31st, we will make the voyage to Clark, Wyoming and hit one of the craziest trails out there. The Morrison Jeep Trail. I just got back today from running it with Adam S. Crazy. Epic. Scary. Amazing. Fun!!!
The Good:
It is the most beautiful scenery you could imagine. The trail really is not that technical, but really fun. You might make it through with no damage*.
The Bad, and The Ugly:
*You might damage your vehicle. There is a nasty boulder on one of the switchbacks that will scratch your sliders. I got impatient with it, hit the gas and tore off a fender flare. I think I could have avoided it. It is exposed. Very exposed. Very little room for error. The switchbacks are tight. The best way to do some of the switchbacks is backwards....yes, backwards. If you have anything longer than a Land Cruiser, you're in for a real challenge. If you're afraid of heights, scratching your truck, or not good on steep sections with your clutch, this might not be a good trail to do.
This is a really fun trail with a high pucker factor. Totally doable! If you are up for THE best trail around, You need to come along!!
We will have two options for meeting. One group will leave Friday Evening, and camp out at the trail head. Leaving at 6 and arriving around 9. the second group will leave at 6am on Saturday and arrive around 9. Please bring a friend, as we will need some spotters.
We NEED to know who plans to attend so we can coordinate appropriately. Please respond by Thursday if you will attend.
