One of the nice things about Bronco is you can always drive in, take a look and opt if you don't feel you or your rig is up to the trail. It's a pretty short drive to go from the entrance to the canyon exit.

You going to try it in the Hundy?

I'll be down at my folks celebrating birthdays for my dad and myself. Would like to check this trail out one day, though.

Anyone have pics from previous runs?

Per Harry Wagner there is an off-road race that is supposed to come through the greater Bronco Canyon area on 6/19. Could be neat!

Wow, that looks like some gnarly trail! Checked out a couple youtube videos as well. Looks like that section would put anyone's skills to the test.

GSR to Lockwood and back if I heard right. Could be interesting, I don't think they will be taking the same routes we will though.

There are two sections, upper Bronco which is the realm of full on tube buggies, and lower bronco which is a dry wash with many many different lines you can take.


The lower section changes every year, some years you could drive a stock jeep through, others it can be a challenge.

What was really funny was how many shades of red you turned.

Dogs and kids are always good for embarrassing the hell out of their owners/parents.

This is true! We went to a block party once with Gunner...A lady had her purse next to her in the grass and Gunner decided it was a good thing to relieve himself on!

Damn DOGS!

Gotta love em though.
