These guys were on the k-trail and someone set a fire on the trail trying to trap them on the trail.

I just saw that over on expedition portal. Lots of marijuana out there. The trail looks fun though. Im not sure if my little 2wd could make it even after the locker though. Lots of scratches to be expected too from reading other threads.

I think with enough people( i'm sure a few will have protection) we'd be ok.

Dont tempt me with the D35 and t case haha

Believe me I want to take it, but she hasnt quite gotten to the point of wanting to risk scratching the paint haha

I'll have an extra truck if you wanted to take a 4wd. Otherwise we may just have to keep a towstrap handy.

From the pics on pirate, those trucks didn't seem extreme, so 31's would probably be ok.

Here are some other pics of the trail

Are we thinkin Spring Breakish or more like April/May

sbsrlewis · 11-29-2011, 05:31 PM

spring break would be idea weather (hopefully). as for the drop grower....its SE OK and that's what's done there. I never travel into that part of OK WITHOUT taking at least one pistol per truck. The people down there are very protective of their stuff or stuff they think is theirs! Dual Sport riders from Ok, TX, KS and AR use this trail fairly often. My son (9 years old) goes with me and if I was TRUELY worried I wouldnt take him nor would I go. I know some of you will be but you carry a gun too...yes I do. I also carry spare parts. Hope to not have to use either of them.

I like spring break. We need to get an idea of who is going and when everyone is available. If you are seriously interested in this let me know and I'll update the first post with everyone's names. Also, should I add a poll to help decide where we are going? I know some people showed interest when the original plan was to go to texas hill country and people are interested in the K-Trail as well.

country0001 · 11-29-2011, 08:41 PM

Im down for Spring Break on the K trail. Im also cool w protecting my rig if necessary. Spare parts def. Need to start gearing up now. Finding a roof rack and so forth. I went thru both threads. It looks pretty sweet.

daniel3507 · 12-01-2011, 02:33 PM

If we tackle the K-Trail are we going to plan on doing it all in 3 or 4 days?

So right now those with a serious interested in going are myself, country, and sbsrlewis im assuming you are also in?
