I can no longer say my Blazer hasn't been stuck!

Postby Trinity » Thu Apr 05, 2007 7:56 pm

It's been two years since my first mudding experience and last weekend I decided to give it another go.

We had already been through this part of the public two tracks but got to a puddle so big we had to turn around and go back. No problem going back what you came through already, right? Wrong! The big trucks had been having a little fun and the return trip proved to have many more ruts and surprises in store. I started driving straight down the trail but then the Blazer was spun 90 degrees to the right. I whipped the wheel to control the fishtail but the mud pulling at everythign had other ideas and we then took a 190 degree turn to the left and came to an abrupt halt. Everyone said it would have made for good video but all I have are the following pics.

Here is where we landed. Doesn't look too bad from this angle but my Blazer doesn't really sit that high.

Here comes everyone to have a look at exactly what happened. Wave to the camera!

It doesn't look so good from the front.

Check out my passenger. He is holding himself off the door and trying his hardest not to think about rolling.

Good thing those big trucks were around. We came out of the hole with almost no problems.

I said almost no problems! It's a week later and this is the only damage that I found. When we came to a stop it was so sudden it broke the seal off my tire. I had a spare but decided to just nurse it along and take care of it after I got home.

Man muddin' is fun!!!

Why do I have the feeling Pork is going to do very naughty things with these pictures?

Two Lakes?


Not at the same time...

One was around 1984... Me and a bud were driving around the local hangout ...some undeveloped land in the middle of town... it was raining like crazy and what I thought was just another puddle turnd out to be more involved ... The upholstery was never quite the same.

The next time was around 1996, when after a christmas party I took the right path when I should have gone left.
