[mike shelton]

if you are talking about the toyota crawl the weekend of 3-31, 4-1, and if nothing breaks real bad before then i am taking my ranger to it. mike

[fabricator]

Yea, thats it toyota crawl,
will also be there, I believe we are renting a house in Everts.

[fabricator]

Anyone else want to meet up there.
CarWash your junk gonna be done by then
they also let rails in there

[94Dodge Truggy]

I would like to go if I can talk a couple of others to go. I want to jump over that can opener obstacle!;)

[mike shelton]

i belive the only way through that area is to have a rig you care very little about. you are going to do some damage for sure. fun to watch people open up there sheetmetal...:D mike

[fabricator]

I don't know about that, You can go all the way to the top of the mountain
with your Daily Driver and not nick the paint . but you are close enuf to watch others junk their **** out.
Have you ever been there?
You can go all over that place with out the can opener effect if you want.
you guys need to check it out sometime
all of this stuff is right off the main trails, that you can watch carwash junk his ****

Quite a few folks on this board have been... My last trip to Harlan was last President's Day weekend... (Pretty much the last thing that I did before tearing mine down. My winter wheeling signature pic below is Mason Jar.) I know that Shelton has been there quite a few times...

I know that the trip up to the helicopter pads is pretty uneventful (unless you were to slide off the trail near the top, that would be BAD), but they are talking about a specific obstacle called "Can Opener" that has a pretty unique talent for destroying body panels (or cracking fiberglass tubs in JeepmanJeff's case :D). Brody had some pretty significant damage there as well from what I remember hearing...

[sarge]

yeah Can Opener with Brody was a very intresting evening that turned into a very long night:D I think we left can around 7:00 pm and went straight to Can Opener and Brody dropped right in . First part was uneventfull . last section on the other hand was painful. First it was a rear drive shaft cut in half on a rock ( my fault ..... :rolleyes: ) then smoking my M8000 trying to pull that big thing out, Only to break springs and u bolts on the front of Brody's rig. Then we all put our thinking caps on to figure out how to get him back to camp. it is amazing what can be done with a few ratchet straps , duct tape and some bailing wire. I think we rolled back into camp around 3:00am'ish . good thing is , we all made it back !!!

No:) I'm in with Fabricator with about 10 other rigs.

[mckeddie]

can opener is always a good time. i got my driver's rear quarter pretty bad last time, then when coming off the rock, i took out the passenger rear corner. made for some great video though. did anyone end up going to this, my buddy frank from down there invited us, but all our jeeps were torn apart at the time.
