Re: QUEBEC--Trail Scouting Day June 27th--NEW DATE

Well truly we have found a new amazing playground, this is only one of a dozen trails in the Labelle area. I think I speak for everyone when I say that this was the most amazing trail I have ever done...bar none...and this despite getting out at 2am!! We had it all Rock, extreme climbs, deep water, Mud, MUD, and REALLY REALLY DEEP MUD! I think we will all be cleaning our Hummers for the next month!
What impressed me most is how we all worked as a team over and thru every obstacle, no arguing despite the stress and despite the time but nevertheless a great time was had by all!
We also proved that T-MAX is KING when it comes to winches since they never died despite repeated full length pulls, we even transfered one onto an H2 with a dead Warn to get him out!! We also killed a 16500lbs Warn...Not Good!
Just think this was a 'moderate' trail...I can't wait for the extreme trail that heads south instead of north...I wonder what challenges that trails holds!!!
Also we all learned the value of Winches, I would highly advise that Every Hummer Owner Purchase and install a winch, you may not need it every trip but when you do need it you'll be glad you have it...really glad...really, really glad! <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... >/grin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';D' />
I also know that many of us will be installing front lockers very soon, another mod that you may think you don't need, but really makes a difference in the tough stuff!!
Great Trail! Great Day!! Great Friends!
See you on the trails!
