We had decent size event over the weekend and we organized it so people who are new to off-roading or new to their bronco could come on the ride. They got to choose between beginner and intermediate trails. We also had some cool prizes to giveaway.
Here’s a summary of our Intermediate group that I was leading. I thought it was a great day with an awesome group of people we hit Saas Creek, Pumpkin Hollow, Old Fincastle then we finished it off with Hells Creek. Everyone did awesome we even meet some new jeep friends that tagged along with us on fincastle. The day started off dry and really sunny. Then about mid Spaas Creek it started to rain a little but nothing serious. The little rain we did have made Pumpkin Hollow a little more slick but it wasn't anything a locked Bronco couldn't handle. After Pumpkin we talked and decided to try and beat the storm and go ahead and hit Old Finastle. We stopped back at the rest area for a quick bathroom break, then we seen some of the other group from the beginner class which was pretty cool and we picked up (bronco5o) with his Matte Black Bronco on 37s, he's going to go run Fincastle with us. Its a pretty scenic drive to top of Fincastle, we were running it South which is down hill, makes it much easier but still a fun obstacle in a Bronco on 35s. Plus everything was wet now and getting slicker by the minute. But we all still did just fine the Bronco is a great off-road right out of the box. We made it through Fincastle unharmed by the rocks and ledges then drove out scenic Hells Creek Rd back to hwy 11 and that ended our day.
It was definitely a day of adventure and a new experience to most. This video is a little long but it’s a good one especially if you plan to ever visit the DBBB at Red River Gorge in KY.
