On February 26 the NM4W extreme group traveled south to Alamogordo and met up with new member Skip Scott so that he could show us around his back yard. Skip has an awesome area with some very technical ginormous slippery boulders. Friday we owned them rocks, Saturday the rocks got the better of several of us. The first ledge we managed to get only 2 out of 8 rigs up it and managed to break a rear end. A bit further up the trail I lost a rear axle shaft, and a bit further up the trail yet another rig down with a busted rear upper truss. Sunday was not much better as a rear frame side link mount broke off a pro-unlimited comp buggy and need to get rewelded on the trail.
We ran the following trails:
Friday: Sweet Pea, lower part of Body Damage, and Hard On (your rig)
Saturday: Twin Towers and Popeye
I got to say that these trails are killer, definitely a step up from many the southern NM trails we run. They will test you mentally and your rig physically. I had a blast and can not wait to get back. Huge shout out to Skip for letting us park on his property and leading us around.
