[QUOTE="Wildman1, post: 783871, member: 16282"] I heard about this too but it was third hand so I didn't want to say anything until I knew more. Part of what I heard was the 33"-35" tire limit and the reasoning behind it was that 5-10 years ago there wasn't any where near the amount of trail damage as there is now. Part of the issue is that there are way more rigs on the trails now than there were before. When I was headed up to test out my Jeep I passed a full size Chevy trugggy coming back down. This thing should have been at a monster truck rally. My point being where are you going to run a rig like that in the Naches area? Other than at Funny Rocks? And I too think the tire size limit is a good idea. I'm sorry if this pisses some folks off. But even 5 years ago when I started wheeling the area the trail damage was not what it is today. I see no reason for anything bigger than 35" tires for any trail here in the PNW. And part of this is if you can't make it turn around. Don't ruin the trail just so you can get thru. It is kind of the same thing as Rock Stacking in other parts of the country. People are finding that once you stack rocks to get one or two rigs thru then it continues and you now have a paved hwy that your VW Golf can do. You can build what ever you want but to make the trail WORK FOR YOUR RIG is wrong. Because it isn't just about you and your rig. There are many others who want to enjoy the same trail you are. To modify the trail just for you is what is ruining them. [/QUOTE]
