BUNMAN-Adventures, Rescue & Recovery
I took a ride up to Lovell Canyon in the Rainbow Mnt Wilderness to escape the heat. It’s all above 5K ft so it never got above 88.
Raptor on a Razor Trail? Yes I ventured up a trail I’d never been on and wasn’t on the Map. It turned out to be a MFER in the Raptor. Never Again on this one. I enjoy the “Scenic” trails w/o fear of severe damage or death! I started sliding off the Ridge, got that sinking feeling, this is going to hurt. I was able to use the Trail Cruse Control in 4Low with the rear locked and was able to pull myself back onto the Ridge.
The 30 degree climbs at Raptor Assault were “fun”, On Pavement. The 22degree hills that I had to negotiate in loose rock/sand with roll-over edges on both sides were “Exciting” but not fun.
Lots of new pinstripes to work on
Granted I’m worth more dead than alive, but I promised my Granddaughter the Raptor. I’m sure she would prefer it in “One Piece”
