A ride to Tip Top Mine!

You may want to order a snow track for that 😁. We have a Tip Top Mine here too.

@@azdesertdog thanks for watching and I was shocked how well the machine hooked up in the snow. I think it was because it was just an overnight dumping and not frozen and embedded like in the winter? But as a native Floridian what the heck do I know about riding in snow??? I do know it was a lot of fun and one of the most exciting rides of the summer!

Tip Top up Bear Creek is on my short list of places to go! I didn’t make the trip a couple years ago due to the Ross Creek fire. Area was closed. Looks amazing and really nothing like I’d pictured it! Thanks for the re-con Mike! Could a guy drive past that first water crossing in a pickup and camp somewhere? I hate being wet

@@richardcabitto5108 thanks for watching and yea that creek was not as bad as I first thought. No real deep fast section it was just surprising to see it so spread out. It really expanded beyond the creek itself.

Awesome dude! Whatever made the tracks is guaranteed to eat humans for a snack!! Told you man! Views for days! My buddy's having some issues with goof balls on side by sides shredding up that trail. Maybe alter the title a bit so said goofballs won't find it as easy? I sure enjoyed it man. That spot where you said "how did they make it up here" Koty crashed out on and my buddy with the CT125 had an absolute fit making it up! But we made it!! Thanks for sharing my friend!

@@PSBEadventures thanks for watching it sure was one of the biggest adventures of the trip. And not surprised to hear about the SxS’s. I got to ride in a 1000cc $70,000 machine in Breckenridge CO on my way back home and it was a beast! You could feel it ripping up the trail. That and he absolutely flew. I wouldn’t want to be coming in the other direction and meet up with one! Riding in one was a true exercise in trust. The driver preferred it in 2wd so it would slide around more 😳

What time of the season were you up there? Looks super green compared to when I was there in late July. Gnarly stuff up there!

[@mikecolesvids]

@@code4performance we visited in early June. 6/12/24 in fact. Cause all the snow I don’t think I made it to the termination of the trail? I think it went up even higher? But yea it got chunky in places for sure. Thanks for watchin!

[@ElijahCiccone]

I just did that in my Tacoma and it took a whole day

[@mikecolesvids]

I bet. Them moto are the apex predators of those kind of chunky trails. Went up and down before lunch. I am curious about the condition at the top? I met the owner of the mine later that summer in town and he said he was having a lot of issues with folks riding off trail and really tearing it up. And thanks for watching and appreciate the comment!
