UPDATE: Argentine Pass, CO - Saturday 8/1

Post by Lumpskie »

Hey guys,

I'm going to be heading up Argentine Pass in the Wagoneer this Friday. If any of you guys are interested in running it, post here and we can meet up.

Here's the trail info:

I'm thinking of heading up in the morning. Post up if you want to tag along.

I can't do Friday, but I can do Saturday.

BTW if the snow is clear all the way to the top of Argentine, you will find out for 100% sure if your carb can handle it or not. That road gets to well over 13k.

I can probably rework my schedule to run it on Saturday. What's the chance on you coming on Saturday?

I've not even bothered to wash the mud off the honcho yet. Also bent both my front springs again (this is like the 5th or 6th time now). So at this point, I don't think I an take the honcho as it needs some TLC.

I may not make it...

Hey Blake:

Since no one else posted up and you are only a "maybe", I think I'll just head up tomorrow as planned. I'll be sure to take some pics while I'm up there and post them up.

Hey Blake and Colorado guys,

I posted up pictures of the trip in the "trails and tales" section and posted the damage in my build thread. If any of you have suggestions for where I can get my body work done, can you post up in my build? Your input would be appreciated!

Thanks,
