Please Help: Environmental groups are trying to close this trail. Please take a few minutes to write a letter to help save it. Click on this link for instructions on what to write and where. THANKS!We again had our annual New Year's Day trail ride to Rich Mountain. Due to the cold weather, we encountered a lot of ice on the trail, which just made it all the more challenging.

9:30 am couldn't be more than 27 degrees - Ken decides doors and tops are for
wimps - 13 vehicles.
Some ice on the trail caused delays. You had to wait around the bend so the
guy in front would not slide back into you. We liked our ARBs.
Poor picture, great subject. It was soo cold I couldn't hold the camera still.
This is halfway through a reverse 180 due to ice.
Justin takes over. Completes the 180 by flooring it in reverse - go Justin!
Ken staring in the Ice brigade. Had to rock back an forth just to break the
ice to make it through the hole.
Come on Leah don't let Justin Drive. The brown rocks are in fact ice chunks.
Hard to get over.
Toy paused before redline back and fourth rocking.
Against its will the toy is thrown back into the pit.
Several tries to make a bypass.
Barron shows Patrick how it's done.
Thank you for visiting!!!
