Looks like a tough hill on a dirtbike. We used to have some monster hills at our sand pit but its been dug down so low that the hills are only about 20' tall now. Back in the day you'd have to be at least in 5th gear pinned on a Banshee to make it up. Good memories...

there is a couple routes up this hill, the one they are climbing isn't that hardest. the problem is the rock at the top. and as you see to get a run, you have to go through the creek.

last time i saw a blaster try it, it was some guy kid, like 13. was talking to the guy about his banshee and out of no where we hear the 2-stroke whine and the guy jumps. it was the kid trying to climb the hill. he gets about 3/4 the way up the easy part and it flips. grab bar catches his foot and drag him down the hill. lucky he was ok.


another time i was on the raptor at the top and it stalled, this was when i had starting issue with it. so i was trying to push it up that last little bit, will some old dipshit tries to climb it while i am in the way. he hits a rock and flips his banshee, that banshee was done for the old dude was ok.

You talking about Oregonia? I am with you, I would rather not destroy my quad just to say I climed or tried to climb something.

Thats only like 20-30 minutes from me. I used to work with a guy who is a member of Dayton Motorcycle Club (promoter of that climb). That is a NASTY hill (Devils Staircase in Oregonia, Ohio). No way I would try to climb something like that.

Nice it doesn't look that steep. Maybe it was just the vid. I like to walk the hills before i ride them, like to know where any stumps, boulders, or tree roots decide to reach out and bite ya!
