Just got done riding the hard level trail out of the 3
Yeah that "hard" trail was actually prety easy. We did it the week before Harlan while helping to makr the trails and shooting the new promo vid. There was 1 spot 1/2 way up the hill which was kinda narrow, with a bit of a drop off on the drivers side, and then the decent at the end of the trail was a little steep with a huge wadie down the center. Other than that, it was pretty mellow going. Still fun none the less.
Earlier that day we took the "moderate" trail which climbed the decent portion of the hard trail. I actually found that to be more of a challanging ride personally.
Either way I'm stoked to do this. I'm really curious to see what kind of turn out there's gona be.

We had to cut a lot of brush and tree limbs yesterday..A few spots of the trail were almost closed off from brush but it is all open now. We didn't get to ride the other 2 trails ran out of time

Yep. We worked much more than we rode.

Is there something for stock jeeps whose driver has little off-road experience?

Havoch, sounds like this would be a perfect place for you to go! The trails seem very doable if you have driving experience.

There will be plenty of stock Jeep there and a lot of volunteers to help out if needed.

The cool thing about these events is its not all about who has the biggest and baddest rig on the block. Its about people getting together who share a common interest and having a good time. So if you are running a bone stock rig, don't worry. There's plenty for everyone there.
