dzJeepChic 2,433 Posted November 10, 2013 Hackberry Creek is a very scenic and technical 4x4 driving trail near Superior, AZ.

MAP Additional Info: High-clearance vehicles with at least 32 - 33" tires and aggressive tread, at least 1 locker, and technical driving experience required. This will be an ALL DAY run! If you have prior commitments in the early evening, you should not sign up for this trip.CB Channel: 4 HAM radio simplex freq: 146.46Everyone should bring lunch, snacks and plenty of water.

LO PHAT 1 Posted November 10, 2013 One day, truck still not ready yet.but Have fun out there! For future reference, will a full size fit? I am still waiting to see someone take a full-size on this trail. You would definitely want a pretty radical lift and some body armor on your truck. Also, several of the tight switchbacks might leave you wishing for something smaller with a tighter turning radius. Other than that I think a skilled driver could do it.

zzmikey 0 Posted November 10, 2013 Wish I could go if it was on the 17th I could go. We just did this run about a month ago and was certainly a 3.5 rated trail. here is a link to my album and some videos: http://s1076.photobucket.com/user/zzmikey1/slideshow/Hackberry%20Trail%20-%20092813 Let me know if you want an update on the trail since I just went, but I am sure it is just as challenging as you remember it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're willing to move this to Sunday 11/17/2013 if it means more than 2 rigs total. Everybody okay with that? Chime in to let me know & I'll change the 1st post.

No! That date conflicts with my "Table Mesa virgins' run". I've been giving serious consideration to joining you for this run on Saturday. My only hesitation has been that I'd be looking at two full, back to back days of wheeling with long travel times to and from the trails. If you are going to change the date, please change it to a completely different weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaspily 2 Posted November 13, 2013 Put Chris and I down for the trip. He needs to finish his rock rail modifications but should be able to before the run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
