[QUOTE="KarlVP, post: 817880, member: 16136"] MMMk... when I talk about a bypass. I am talking about a bypass at a single trail obstacle. Not a whole bypass along the entire trail. Like this spot. [IMG]http://img332.imageshack.us/img332/5549/dsc02289ef3.jpg[/IMG] We all know where that is, and when it is wet and nasty, it may not be something everyone wants to tackle. Hence the bypass around that single obstacle. I totally disagree with an obstacle getting so hard for EVERYONE that a bypass is built around it. The obstacle should be maintained, not a new cut put in so people can get around it. Or an above average obstacle should have an EASY, PAVED (paved meaning not going to get torn up) bypass so those that don't want to break thier junk can go around. If an installed bypass is getting torn up, it should be taken care of PROMPTLY, so people don't make another bypass around the bypass. Here is what I am talking about. The trail is to my Right that you can see in the back of the picture. The hole I am in can get pretty nasty when it is wet. However, there is a nice, easy bypass to the left. Something you can drive your honda civic through. If you want to have fun, stay to the right, if you want the easy way stay left. And if you can't drive, this is what happens. [IMG]http://www.timbertamers.org/runs2006/liberty2006/P8190914.jpg[/IMG] I also agree with not tackling trails that are too hard for you. But I think you should push your vehicles limits a little bit, this is why we wheel. To try new things. There are also trails that people shouldn't go on too. Take the busywild at elbe. Once you are in there, and down the big hill, you are ****ed. There are no bypasses down there. It's pretty nasty. Most people know better and the ones that don't should be educated, not made fun of. (I only bring the making fun of people part because I have seen that happen.) Anywho; to sum it up, take Little sluice, on the Rubicon.
