The event posts are kind of weird, thanks for making the dates easier to find!

I imagine it is too close to Trail Hero for you?

We actually leave TH and head straight to an event in Hot Springs AR....we've missed it for 5 years (date conflict) and they pushed it back a week this year.

They were looking at moving it a week later to help deconflict with Trail Hero, but I forgot why they ended up keeping it the same week again this year.

Chile Challenge used to be held in February back when it was based out of the Las Cruces area, but King of the Hammers started creating a conflict. They changed it to October when it moved to Caballo, but now Trail Hero is causing the same issue again, which is a shame, because early October is perfect wheeling weather in Southern New Mexico.

What trails are you signing up for? I'd prefer to group up with you if possible being that it'll be my first attempt at attending.

I forgot which trails I volunteered for on Friday and Saturday, I'll have to bug Ernie to remember. I'll probably volunteer for Wednesday and Thursday too, but I'll let you know when I lock it in. They'll be mostly 6 and 7 rated trails.

Your rig would be fine on the 7+ and 8 trails, but those are getting spicy for my BII and I don't have a winch on it which you will probably need on Cabin and Crystal.
 
Man I want to come down there and wheel these trails. I'm hoping to make it out next year

Hit me up if you do or if you get a bug to come out some other time during the year. Caballo is as big as the Hammers, so you could make a couple of trips out and still not see all the good stuff.
 
Our crew is still debating.

Good to see you made it over here Brian.
