TripleB goes up the Devil's Elbow

[Plumber32]

I think you could probably bring a Pioneer down it but going up it would be almost impossible. You would have to have balls of steel to even try it in a Pioneer. @Plumber32 said he tried it and broke an axle. After riding with him, I believe him when he said he tried it.

On the old YouTube seems like the 50" sxs do the best on that. A stock talon x did it recently. Low c.g. is a big help on that and 100 h.p.
I'd try it again.

Twin Falls

Whats the history on this as in the crosses? I figured out the twin falls part lol.

Lol I will buy your yearly windrock permit and all the beer you can drink at the takeover if you try to go up that hill. I'm talking a real try. Which means u make it or brake something. Deal?

Can I take you up on that?

I have no idea. The crosses are at the twin falls. Had a prayer request box by the by the bench. Thats the 1st time I've ever been there.

Did you try and hug that left side? That Talon looked like a pogo stick going up that 😂. Did any of the KRX fellers try it?

Panther rock. I cant find my Panther rock pictures. Was the bicycle still hanging in the tree at the end of the rock?View attachment 243966
This is that same waterfall after a good rain storm.

I didn't see the bicycle in the tree. I was mainly looking at the view sitting on Panther Rock

We wanted to and that was the plan but Joey and plumber turned around and went back to camp. The rest of the group continued on up 21 and were suppose to meet them there at the elbow. I don’t know what happened. But that fell though and we never made it to either devils elbow or waldens ridge because the pioneers kept having failures. Those were the only two things we really wanted to do and we never made it.


We will do it this takeover though.. @Ragnar406 and I have already been talking about it.

f***in junk pioneers!

In your pioneer, yes lol

He definitely won't be taking you up on that deal.

I've watched just about every video I could find on YT that had someone going up Devil's Elbow. Narrower machine looks like it goes right up with a little wheel speed, where the wider buggies struggle. Pretty much all of them that tried to baby it had to winch that section then went right up, or they grenade something in the machine when it starts to bounce. It looks MUCH "easier" now that the big rock isn't there that I saw a lot of full on rock machines struggle with on older videos.

Nope just @joeymt33 and I. Everyone else got spooked and went to camp for "lunch"

The hard part i think will be the rock shelf, thats if you can make it up the 1st part.

That rock is gone.

This rock is moved down the hill to here

Definitely easier than it was in the spring but not easy at all. I watch 2 rzrs come down it yesterday. They didn't want any part of going back up it.

Definitely doesn't look easy. There are more videos on FB of different buggies doing it more recently (one is a stock Talon), but they are lost in the FB ether never to be seen again.
