So I can not bring my RV? Due to the Hill or what?

Jeff, You can bring your RV it will make it to the top of the hill fine. The road up the hill is a un-maintained asphalt road (my guess is that it has not been maintained in about 10 years), it has large potholes is uneven and steep. I pulled my rig loaded on the trailer up the hill in 4wd last time as did several others in the group I was there with. Some folks in our group did have trouble getting up the hill loaded and one tow rig blew up his transmission going up the hill inside the park. There were RV's at the top of the hill so I can confirm it is possible .

unfortunately I am out for this.

Who else is excited and ready for this trip? I am!

Runoveru2 · 08-01-2018, 11:48 AM

I'm excited, but trying to find the time to get things done on my rig is killing me.
Discovered 2 days ago that my right rear inner axle shaft is slightly bent, it will just have to work I guess..will wear the brakes out a little unless I can find the time to swap it out.

GMP sale discussions have been tossed around on forums for a while. We/CORE may have the last private ride at GMP until after it sells. After the Dixie Run, its no longer going to be open to anyone. We picked a good time to go.

I don't like hearing news like this, too many parks closing, we will make this or 1st, last and best trip possible.
I will be heading out between 5-6 am Friday Morning, I have never been at this park before so if there is any important information about anything on what road to take or not take now would be a good time for someone to give a heads up.
Don't like finding out the Hard way..

Example is Windrock
Wheeling the tow Rigs to get in.

I think this is the only big trip I've ever missed.

Golden Mountain Offroad park is a awesome place to wheel, wish I have heard of years ago, was only in last few years that I had knowledge of and never had the opportunity to check out until now.
There is from mild to Wild at Golden Mountain, very well organized and never far from camp.

jeepmanjeff · 08-13-2018, 05:21 PM

So who flipped and how?

Why is Ben Passenger tire not turning?

Nobody's sure. He said nothing was broke, maybe a photographic fluke?

I don't see how a picture can stop one Wheel

More pics from Golden Mountain.

This was considered a "Bypass"
I have never seen a bypass that will swallow your rig

Runoveru2 · 08-13-2018, 10:59 PM

More Golden Mountain pics

There were a few nicely built buggies that showed up on Saturday to wheel with us.

They had big power
Big sticky tires
Big balls....and...
No fear at all..

Ben had just mentioned to his women Andrea that he heard on Hardline that there was a washout that created a underground cavern / cave...well right about that moment I found it with my rig and almost flipped end over end and swallowed my Drivers 40 inch tire. This was fun, i do believe people for miles heard my butt cheeks slap together.

So..
Here is the pic of the washout/Cavern/ cave that I unexpectedly found with my rig

We did find a couple of these guys while we were there wheeling.

We put them in saftey range.
No animals were harmed in the making of this offroad event.

That damn picture still has me stumped.....got the buggy out today and ripped around in the woods. Nothing is broken.

This is very strange, Chromoly axles hopefully don't twist that much
