I fear I may actually have that issue in one, too.

I was thinking we could do what we did on the trail with mark9998, low air pressure, use pry bars to pull back bead, clear rocks, move on around the circumference?

Someone was talking about it one here - if I recall correctly, they said it was boring & recommended Bundy Hill, instead.

Sure, I'll wheel it with you, but I will prolly bring my beater Ford Escort . Its a dirt path, probably only exciting when muddy or there is 1 ft+ of snow down.

I ran that trail recently. Nothing challenging. So much so I let my girlfriend who has never driven any vehicle off road run the whole thing. Worth checking out but nothing crazy.
