Bumble Bee Area Arizona ATV

While most people were trying to figure out what kind of dip to serve at their Super Bowl party, we were out 'wheeling. No, it wasn't an official trail run. No, it wasn't some kind of event. It was just us out 'wheeling with some of our Arizona cronies for the heck of it.

Not too many places offer good four-wheeling in January (think snow). We were eager to take advantage of it, and Arizona offers the chance to get off-road year round. Another plus to this beautiful state is that there are plenty of hard trails within a couple of hours from Phoenix, meaning you can drive out in the morning, run the trail, and be back home in time for dinner with the rugrats. Arizona must also have a plethora of fabricators as over half of the rigs on our "for the heck of it" run were a jumble of tubes.

We loaded up the trailers and headed out to beautiful downtown Bumble Bee, Arizona, to hit the trail. While just over a mile long, the trail provides plenty of entertainment and induces plenty of carnage. Giant rocks, water, sand, zero traction, and lots of tube-bent "Jeeps" were the theme of the day. Check out the following photos and try to have some fun.
