    RZR accident at Banshee Hill 3-19-16

    in Dumont Happenings

    Posted

    Any updates on the gentlemen who was injured in the back seat? We were talking about this accident last night. Hopefully he's. Recovering and getting use of his legs.

    Back injuries suck. I also broke my back on this same jump, nothing like this accident, as I actually landed perfectly just too far too high and too fast.

    Think about this from time to time as well, updates anyone?

    Yea we wanted to give glass a shot. Don't forget the sunroof lol gotta be able to see those hard to see spots. As of now were thinking doing the chassis white like our rzr and do matching wraps for both of them.

    Car looks Sweet! Glass is awesome as long as you and all of your passengers have iron stomachs. Is looks like it may be removable.? :beerpint:

    Feedback for a Baker RV Park and secured storage

    in General Chat

    Posted

    For the dune community I think there would be next to zero interest in a rv park for multiple reasons. As far as storage, some may use it to cut down on wear and tear but very few IMO. If it was closer to the dunes like the storage areas in Glamis then it may be a touch more popular but there are not near the numbers they have down south. Baker is simply a place to refuel for most and change directions (west) for a few.

    You can opt out, just have to sign a waiver, I am not having my flashed either.

    Just curious, why would you have to sign anything? What happens if you do not?

    My son and my brothers and I were the ones on the White f-350. I hope everyone is ok. The rear passengers name is michael Griffin if im not mistaken. Before the paramedics got there, the nurse was checking his legs and michael did have some feeling at that time. I will be praying for everyone that was involved.

    Pretty sure his name is John Murphy, none the less hope he heals quickly :thumb:

    The sound of that crash was horrendous, I went back and forth to the injured's camp a few times to keep the injured passengers wife informed / calm as she was watching the kids in camp, we also took her to see her husband before he was flown out. Having dentboys wife at the seen was a true blessing for those three, and hopefully a relief for the wife in camp. Props to Pete for handling communications (at the price of his phone), Anna for taking exceptional care care of the young one and Chad for acting quickly / getting his wife. I've seen a lot of incidents like this over the years, some much worse, it really sinks in how remote the area is and how helpless one can feel. While I have my opinions on this particular accident, I will keep them to myself. Most of these accidents can be prevented and a lot of injuries can be reduced by having proper safety equipment. Hope everyone involved heal up quick and even more gain knowledge. I will state the obvious though, I wouldn't drive out of the trailer in a rzr with stock belts and / or a stock cage. I think any seat would have come out the way the rzrs are designed as they rely on the belts / passenger to keep them in place. Hope all involved recover quickly, I fractured C6-C7 on a dirt bike years ago, it may take a while but the spine can recover from trauma.

    edit to add: There was a group of guys and a girl there (for the drags) in a white F250, they were first on scene as they were right there when it happened. They stayed with the injured till all were transported which was quite a while. Nicely done fellow duners :thumb:

    fifth wheel toy hauler vs motor home-enclosed trailer

    I've gone every route in the book, a few times, I'm back to a moho and enclosed simply because it is nice to pull up and go to sleep and especially because I can load my stuff without having to have the wife finished organizing the trailer first. Some trips I can stretch an extra day out because I can load in the evening and hit the road before daylight to get to work :beerpint:
