ZR2 S-10s ROCK

blue2kzr2 · April 18, 2004

Those of us in the East have the pleasure of Paragon Adventure Park being within a few hour's drive (4 1/2 to be exact for me). Went there with the guys from www.zr2.com and had a blast. We did some rock crawling, splashed in some good mud puddles and just had fun. We didn't do anything TOO extreme, but my blue truck is now blue on the roof fading quickly to thick brown mud on the rockers. www.paragonap.com is the place, and if you're near there and can go with a group, DO IT, but stick to the green trails, maybe even green level 1, you WILL need ground clearance for ANYTHING more than that. My stock Z even hit in a few places, won't know the extent of damage, if any, until Tues when I'll have a good chance to clean it up.

Nobody got stuck. It's incredible, we got there, aired down after registering, wheeled for 5+ hours, got back to the main area, aired up and I drove 4 1/2 hours home at 70-75 getting 20 MPG. This truck is GREAT.

Glad you had fun....

I agree Z's are bad arse... I pulled out a buried 70'd-80's chev 2wd the other day. The front passenger side tire was comletely buried, the front drivers was 3/4 buried, and the back two weren't visible. I came up, hooked up, and took off, wasn't a prob at all. There about 8 mexicans that were riding in the truck as well, I was surprised they didn't just all try and push... When I asked they said they had been stuck for 2 hours. I took pics but they won't be up for another month or so... d**n I want a digital camera...

Here are the pics I took with my film camera. They really don't do the place justice, plus I really couldn't take too many pics of the trails considering I needed 2 hands on the wheel and 2 eyes on the trail. Even a stock Z had SOME trouble, mainly rocker bashing and a slight pumpkin hang that didn't need a tow strap (my poor choice of line is to blame there)...

I used to ride my ATV at Paragon. I want to take my Tahoe there. But I have to get a few people to come. I only have 2 right now. I will definatly need to go on the green level 1 trails. I don't wanna hurt my baby. But she needs to get dirty too. Let me know if you are ever heading out there again. I live about 2 hours away in Jersey.

Later,

Brandon

We're lookin' at sometime in Aug. We had a Scottsdale (with 6" lift and some big super swampers on it) and 2 jeeps in our group, so it wasn't just ZR2's but the event was planned by the ZR2 group.
