Strangely I was at GI Joes in Mt Vernon about 9:15 yesterday morning :banghead:

So I decided to see if I could remember the way to Walker Valley. Once there I found a group of Suzuki's to join and managed to get a good tour of the ORV.

Following around those little, light, short wheel base rigs made the XJ seem huge. Of course there were plenty of spots where more wheel base made things easier. I would venture there are situations for any rig.

Reminded me of when the MG and Corvette clubs do joint autocrosses. When the Corvette folks host the course is full of long sweepers. When the MG guys set the cones it is very tight curves; with usually one place where the Vettes have to select reverse to get on through.

Pics, videos, and details of where we ran can be found here: http://www.websitetoolbox.com/tool/post/crawlersnw/vpost?id=2779033

Worth mentioning is that a group called Core4X4 was putting in a new trail. They were working with the DNR had heavy equipment rocks and drain pipe.

The skill building area is a DNR thing all clubs are more than welcome to contact Jim and donate hours toward Walker. The more the better cuz the ridge runners are giving their input on trails and we should do the same .The trails are going to fun .
But it would be a good thing if got to be part of building some of them trails and putting in some input on what we wood like to see.
I was up there all day on satureday and well it was a lot of work but well worth it got to see a couple of trails get there cherry's pop and it LOOKED GOOD.
Thanx Duane
