[QUOTE="MagicMtnDan, post: 84700, member: 2768"] We continued on through the Texas Dip, a natural depression (sort of like a crater) and drove to Fish Creek where we went off-road. Fish Creek is a beautiful wash (trail) in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park with diverse natural beauty. The wash takes you past Wind Caves (where you can get out and hike a mile to the caves). We continued driving out Fish Creek wash moving a moderate rate of speed (which would have been too much for most any other stock vehicle). The Raptor loves to run the washes in Anza-Borrego and it's an incredible experience to see the area while blasting through the washes in Raptor's very comfortable cab with great seats, A/C, satellite radio with its amazing suspension soaking up the bumps that would hammer any other stock truck. We turned off Fish Creek and headed for Diablo Drop-off which is up a very challenging and tight trail. This was a rocky, tight, technical trail and it required patience and guidance and Kyle did a great job of spotting for us guiding us throught the rocks enabling us to get through "Broken Shaft Gulch" with nary a scratch. [ATTACH=full]177645[/ATTACH] Below: It's a very tight fit for our W-I-D-E Raptors but we all made it through and it was a pleasure to pilot the Raptors throught the canyon. Here's Justin squeezing through with Kyle looking on. [ATTACH=full]177646[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]177647[/ATTACH] Below: Here's MarkT driving his Raptor through the "Gulch". Mark had a great time tearing up the washes and trails. He got his Raptor sideways quite often :smileup: [ATTACH=full]177648[/ATTACH] Below: Here's Kyle doing his excellent spotting work for Mark.
