Annual Phoolz run is going to be April 1 (Saturday). Chinaman Gulch (now Yansing Gulch).

Recommendations for Chinaman Gulch:

35 inch or bigger tires
At least 1 locker
Rocker armor/skids
Recovery points on your rig
Tools

This trail is possible on 33s with good spotting. This trail is a day trip so plan on a good 6 hours to complete, plus your travel to/from Buena Vista. Bring a lunch, snacks and liquid refreshments.

Meet up at the Gunsmoke truck stop in Johnson's Village starting at 9:00 am and leaving for the trailhead by 9:30 am.

Denver area folks can caravan from:

Phillips 66
16283 Morrison Rd
Morrison, CO 80465

Depart time of 7am sharp.

23 days! Fix your shit and get ready!

On 32s you would need some impressive driving skills and a really good spotter. 31s ain't gonna happen

Lockers or tuck and armor (sliders and TC skid)?

looks like i won’t be ready this year, the engine skid is still in limbo from Savvy and if they ever bring out the rock rails again.

guess i will still continue the work towards the 35”

anyone want to help weld in the new rear tack bar?

I have a set of rock sliders if you need some. They are similar to the Warn sliders.

Shaping up to be a good day! Drove thru last week and I only saw snow in the shaded areas.
