By Saturday morning we had put the trucks through a lot more than I expected.
The trail was definitely harder and more technical than I thought it was going to be. I was probably being a little Nervous Nelly about beating the shit out of my truck, while Jason had a lot more confidence in what the rigs could handle.
So we compromised.
We headed into Clarksville for lunch and gas, then came back up Highway 21, which let us bypass one of the sketchier sections before reconnecting with the High Water Mark Trail.
Once we got back into it, there was actually some really fun wheeling — tight trails and technical spots where we’d get out, look at the line and figure out how we wanted to get through.
That was much more what I had pictured this trip being.
