Mid-West Jul 24-25 Superlift ORV Park - Hot Springs, AR
 
Here are some initial pics of Day 1, Superlift ORV Park - Hot Springs, AR. Most of these trails were designated Level 1, 2 and 3, although one was close to or a Level 4.

Going down a steep descent with some huge ruts! Pics DO NOT do justice here.

Climbing up this hill sounded like running over coke bottles!

Others may have better pics. Most of ours ended up coming out blurry and had to weed them out. Look forward to better shots tomorrow - Day 2!!! :ya:

I need to get my butt up there and do some wheeling! Great shots though!

Thanks for sharing. You folks have a great time, and keep safe.

Just Got Home from Superlift
 
Just got home from wheeling with the group at Superlift. Somehow I managed not to damage anything other than a few more pinstripes despite some the trails we traversed. I was to busy holding on to my steering wheel to take pics, but I am sure someone from the group will post. I had a great time, so a big THANK YOU to everyone that was there. See you again next time.:thumbsup:

That's always a great feeling getting home without damage and having a super time. I was planning on this trip a long time but had another situation come up, maybe next run I can meet more of you. The trails looked like a blast and experience is the best teacher. :thumbsup:

I wish I could have gone. I am looking forward to seeing more pictures. I hope somebody brought a big ole bottle of Advil for the hangovers tomorrow morning.

I did find out my new toy is being picked up tomorrow, and should hopefully be here next week. I will post pics once I have it and get it cleaned up.

It may take me a few more tries before I get names, nicknames and faces corectly matched up :bleh:. But I will say this - it was great meeting everyone there, and I second SD Hardrocker on this; a big THANK YOU to everyone that was there, and for everything they did to help me through :thumbsup:. I went in with 2 major objectives - to meet some good friends I've made through the forum, and to try out what my JK is capable of without trying to break anything. Glad to say, I accomplished both, well - almost. Just ripped the boot on the front driveshaft :rollingeyes:

TORN, Hope to meet you the next trip :) The trails were indeed a blast, although there were some WHOA!! moments - atleast, for me. Being new and accidentally ending up on some advanced trails have a way of doing that somehow :thinking:. Nonetheless, a great adventure and a great experience.

Would've been great if you'd have been able to make it. Uploading Day 2 pictures and a couple of videos [although we may need some sea sickness pills for the videos :D]. And oh, I do carry a big ole bottle of Advil in my center console - not for hangovers though :D But anyone that needs it is free to have it :rotflmao2:

Uploading more pictures, will update soon! And again, a BIG THANKS to everyone that was there. Truly, a memorable experience. :thumbsup:
