There's a Ghost Falls run March 23. Ghost is down by Cochrane.
Ghost is fairly easy even for stock rigs if you're interested

Ghost is open Dec 1 to March 31. For offroad vehicles

Trevor you up for a road trip?
I'm going to try and make that one, I'll need the staging area when someone gets a chance to put it up.

They are meeting at the husky for 930 am.
Should hit the trail head for 10 am.

I'm undecided if I'm just driving down for the day or if I'm planning on grabbing a room yet.

That Jeep went every where that RZR did was pretty impressive!

I booked a room at the super 8.
Planning on driving down Friday Night. And coming home on Sunday.

This is the meeting point for 9am.

And this is the trail head where we air down.


This is a very easy run. Nothing too challenging.

Was a good day. I picked a bad line. But stayed committed. Made it through. Only took and hour and 20 minutes. Mostly winching. At one point had the snow pile over the top of my bumper.

Right on.
Was nice meeting ya. Glad you made it down.
I had to drive back to edmonton in 4x4 and at 80-85kms. In 2 wheel drive the axle and wheel would keep hitting. In 4x4 and with speed the broken axle was turning at the same speed as wheel making less noise. But any faster and the jeep started to shake. May have been ice in the wheels but it wasn't worth the risk.
