Looks like you all had a great time. Great pics. I wish I lived closer. Just haven't had the time to travel anywhere that far away. I'd like to think my Brute would do pretty good in the dunes too. I wouldn't quite be able to keep up with those Scramblers but I bet I wouldn't be left too far behind.

Yeah, mines a 650. They made an irs 650 as well and for some reason it has a little more power. The Renegade 500 your son used to have would probably be about equal in performance to my 650. It has plenty of power for the kind of riding I do.

Great pics. Going to the Jamboree last year was a dream come true for me. I was up on Monroe myself on one ride, but there's so much to see there I only got a sample the week I was there. I've been kicking myself since for not looking for a job while I was there. The area (Richfield, Marysvale, Monroe) is really neat and don't think I'd have a problem relocating.
I sold my ATV and trailer due to money issues these last few months, but I've vowed to myself if I can ever get back to a comfy level I'll be back to the trail someday. To be honest, after I got back from there, all the usual trails here in KS just seemed so mundane. I don't think I'd ever be bored out there.

My wife goes on one or two rides each year. She has a good enough time but it's not her cup of proverbial tea. She likes the outdoors and canoed the Allagash River in Northern Maine well before I did it. Just not into long rides on the quad. After doing quite a few switchback trails that are quad width, with hefty drop offs, off-camber hill climbs, etc. I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have gone out more than one day.

I only had one steep trail right up near the top that I wished I had more power. This was at about 10,000 ft. with crushed pumice that got wet and created a really slick surface that had me slowing way down, even in the widest corners. I stopped trying to keep up with the boyz after sliding towards the edge of a corner with a good 50' drop off.
