Well, I gave the place one more chance this weekend. Reasons i dont like this place are its too far, too crowded and no destination rides. It delivered all as usual!
First ride out I follow my buddy who is leading the pack. Takes us down a wash, fucking mud everywhere. That clay type mud. Im like bro, was that needed? Now my car is a fucking shit stain the first 10 mins there.
People are EVERYWHERE. Yes I know its the holiday, but the trails were like the 405 freeway.
Saturday, we are “pretend” rock climbing a bit up a hill , against my wifes better judgment. She hates it! I take my time, got out to look at lines 3 or 4 times. Anyways, as im looking over the last time, a white RZR comes blazing past us on the ridgeline and makes a right down a rock shoot. I hear some noise, then make my way down slowly.
You guessed it, rzr rolled down the chute. I jump out and ask if everyone is OK. Dude runs back saying “ no its bad”. My EMT ambulance days kick back in from 20 years ago. Find a guy holding his arm. Compound double fracture. Almost amputation. You guessed it, stuck his arm out the window on the roll. My buddy Randyhad a nicely stocked tramua bag. I start calling off supplies in ems terms, and he is handing me all the right shit! I was like damn, good job! . Tryed to secure the arm as much as we could to get him out of razor and off the hill. Finally did, by then the cavalary arrived and every ranger in the park. I counted 15 by the way.
Kinda amped me up for the evening and got back to camp to start some dinner and drinks.
Im not sure the allure is for everyone. My buddy loves the place. Just isnt my cup of tea.
Didnt take many pics but I did get one of my buddy stuck on a dune and buried when i finally convinced the group to go across the highway to some BLM land. That was a fun change and less crowded.
