Had to winch a Ford Ranger up the 311 hill Laborday weekend. :wtf:
Wasn't you was it?:scratchhead:
Nope, wasn't me.
I hope I'm not thread jacking too much, but I got up to Evans about 10:00 Saturday evening, and rode dirtbikes most of today.
Anyway, after I left, my buddy decided to take his Stock Mazda B2300 up the 311 (it has been up it before). A ways before the rock garden, there is a spot we call the "black rocks", it is just a lefthand corner, and it is dug out in a couple spots, and the rock is black. Mike tried going around that corner, and went to high, and... he flopped his junk... I guess it did-in the cab above the rear window pretty good, and the door/ fender/rocker, but that was it, no broken glass or anything. Then he proceeded to break something in the front end (most likely a hub) on the rock garden. I'm gonna go look at it tomorrow, so I might get some pics, lol. It was a pretty straight, clean truck before today...
Early in the day we saw a group of rigs, and my cousin said that the red Cherokee of the group flopped today too. It was straight when we saw it, but one side was toast when it left. It was roll over day at Evans, :beer:.
EDIT: the "rock garden" is the last real challenging spot on the lower 311. After, it is basiclaly just road. That is just what Ive call it for my whole 18 years, I know others call it differently.
