Nice pics. Yeah, it seems to get harder each year.

Nice pics. It seems like it was a pretty high traffic trail this winter, I bet it's changed since I've been on it in March (a stock explorer with us did make it through pretty easily though).

Great pics. I'd have to say I don't care much for Carnage. It's great for SWB-ers, but not so good for LWB-ers with only 32s. I tore up my shit pretty good having to take the bypasses. It was also super wet when I went, and there were also a bunch of broken down rigs up there. Took us 4 hours to run it. That sucks ass when you've got your wife and toddler with you.

I have made it through Carnage in 1.5 hours. It also took us 7 hours one time. It can be one of those trails.

So I've heard.

One of the SWB-ers that I took it with had a good point. He said "Carnage is not driven, it's earned".

I'm sure it would have been more fun for me if my rig was up to the specs I'd like it to be. In particular, lockers, and a bit more armor. I bashed the shit out of my front and rear diffs up there. CAs got some lovin', but nothing horrible. I guess it's just a frustrating trail unless you have a really good spotter.
