Trail Run New Years Weekend, Backroad to Crown King

[hatter_zxy]

If I still lived there I would be there, had a blast at the kick of run! Take lots of photos!

Checked out my schedule and I'm off those days, so I'm in! Any decision on a trail yet? I'm up for the Wickenburg area trail, but honestly that's because it's nearer to me than the usual AZXC runs. I'm up for whatever though, I haven't been out since I went to Colorado a few months ago. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Ok so for the people in for this run please post which trail you are interested in.

I vote for Gila River Trail

Not sure about this time of year but there may be water in the river? I dont know.

Can you do this trail stock?

[sunny1881]

Ive never run it but we have our beloved jddirty with the MiniVan(stock edition, until he recently added Xoskel sliders) that has run many blue rated trails with us, he does great, trust me we all are out there to have fun, test the limits of the X a little or a lot depending on who you are, but in the end we have fun, wheel and always help and spot each other through any obstacles.

with that Said I'm there and yes I know how AZXC works and that's why I'm a supporting member and always will be. Thanks Sunny see you soon.

Sunny mind posting the trail description from the guide book on here and the map?  It would be a good thing for the guys debating on going.

Ok so I updated with the OP with trail descriptions.

11Pro4X, Slapshotking09, jddirty, azxterra410, remo1991, Rosie and any others interested in going,
 
Please read the description's in the OP and post up what you'd like to run, we could narrow it down to 2 or if one trail has the majority go with that one. By Friday the 28th I will put post the Final trail we decide to run and the meeting location so please post up asap and look back next friday and saturday to see where were going!

Thought we are doing the Gila River Loop any pics of that trail?  I cant find any online.  Any chance of a map?

[sunny1881]

I just replied previously that I vote for Gila River trail, but Im open for any of them, actually wouldnt mind running Crown King again, the obstacles are fun and chellenging enough but bypasses for those that choose. I dont personally have any pics(never ran it) my trail book has a few small ones but nothing worth trying to post on here. I'll see about mapping it.

Here is a link to the start location of Gila River Loop: http://binged.it/TekCAT, you run up to the river in a big creek bed then go around the big butte (which is the most challenging part) back to the river is where you see the RR trestle and then basically come back out.

I say Crown King so anyone can come up and I bet there will be snow up there.  Its a fun trail!

Lets do that one!

[Rosie]

I'd be down for Crown King!
