I was doing a Yahoo Photo Search on the word æUwharrieÆ and came across a few things worth sharingà


#1: RobGÆs very first trip to Uwharrie
ItÆs pretty hard to believe thatÆs the same vehicle!



#2: The Land Rover Uwharrie Safari `05
Hmmmà April 14-17... Now why is it those dates sound familiar?



#3: (From NickÆs website)



Un-retouched proof that Don has earned his Jeep Recovery Merit Badge!



#4: NissanOffroadÆs NOAS 2003 Uwharrie Photos

These are some of the better photos of the Daniel & Rocky Mountain Loop trails that IÆve seenà They should give newcomers a good idea of what the most extreme trails in Uwharrie look like (but donÆt worry, theyÆre not all like this).

However, I strongly disagree with the caption for photo #19, where it was said of the right-side optional æhard lineÆ on Daniel that ô35's might be enough to clear it, but even that's questionableöà

While admittedly, the conditions change from season to season / year to year û Over the years, IÆve watched a number of times as quite a few Isuzus, Mitsubishis, and Jeeps have made it through that section, with tires as small as 32s.

In fact, on a night run last October, I managed it myself for the very first time û and did so with so little effort that Joe Darlington looked up from spotting on the far left line and asked öHey, where did you come from? û I didnÆt even hear you spin a tire!ö (and thatÆs because I didnÆt! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> ) û then afterward, Janet complemented me by saying öYou made that look goodà and easy!ö

IÆm not trying to brag - All IÆm saying is that it isnÆt necessarily the size of the tires, the amount of lift, or how deep you choose to stab the skinny pedal that gets you throughà Oftentimes, choosing just the right line can accomplish the exact same end resultsà (although, having a locker helpsààà a lot!)
