Meet Spike - Rausch Creek Park Truck

[UNL1MTD]

I was up at Rausch Creek wheeling my Unlimited last weekend and I got a chance to take a look at their park truck, Spike. I got a couple specs from the park staff while bsing around the fire. It was pretty cool seeing a MJ as a park truck. I believe Paragon had/has one too as a park truck. I also saw a stock MJ pull up to wheel as I was leaving Sunday.

What did you think of Rausch? I have wanted to go there, but everyone in the club always wanted to run PAP.... I guess next yrs trip will be to Rausch though.

Yea with Paragon closing there isnt much choice. I have been to Paragon and the rocks are similar in grip. Its that sandy composite stuff that your tires can glue too. Rausch also has a lot of slate around the area, used to be a coal quarry or something. I've been there three times now and the place is pretty awesome. Definitely tons of rocks too flop/roll on and also lots of trails that are sutiable for stock rigs.

 

They got plenty of places to camp and park trailers. The park has a slightly more laid-back attitude than Paragon as well. I'm a big fan, I'll be going back atleast 3 more times this year.

Gotcha... Hopefully I will have the time and the money to finish Pong this year :eek:
