My Trip To J.W. Corbitt - 4/19/2008 7:00:09 PM

Took a trip out to J.W. Corbitt just outside of West Palm Beach, FL.

Had a good time, but there is a ton of water there that I wasn't entirely comfortable with.

Here are some pics-

This gator was probably around 10 feet long.

Damage report-

Two fender linings.
One bent license plate.

I'm also not entirely pleased with my 35 inch BFG MT's.

Granted, I got into some nasty, thick mud, they caked up in no time.

Anxiously awaiting my Mud Grapplers and lift to try some of the deeper water and mud.

Looks like fun! Wouldn't want to have to get out to use the winch with that gator there though!!

Garrett,
Nice pics. I actually live about 10 min from Corbitt and have thought about taking my H3 in there but the unknowns have kept me out. Let me know if you plan a 2nd trip and I can meet you there.

Keith,

I wouldn't worry about heading out there with only one truck, but take another person.

I'll certainly be heading out there again, and you're more than welcome to join.

Ha, ha........Gator looks like he's saying; "break down....break down, go ahead....break down and you're mine."

or..."Mmmmmmmm.....Hummer, hard on the outside...soft on the inside."

I went out again today.

The water had receded and I was able to run the trail I was afraid to previously.

Ironically enough there was a gator in the water.

Needless to say, I was glad I didn't get stuck...

Great pics. Looks like fun. It would be a good idea to run with a buddy though.

Cool pics!! It's annoying how all the dirt accumulates on the front of the rear tirewell.
