I could do that in my rig.



Ugh..... no, I couldn't.

The pics are outstanding! Looks brutal.

from what i've seen in the pictures of the trail, i think the trail has gotten worse. more loose dirt gone making the boulders bigger. i was there 4-24 it looked like a battle zone rocks being victorious.

Well my braggin rights is that britney nailed me!
Summer of '06, the last time, which was also my first time w britney, :greg: my buddie from england was w me, his first time wheelin, and we went with some friends on this trail. cant remember the climb we were tryin but we must have tried it 6 times before we started gettin a little roudy. after some heavy skinny peddel attempts i went over backwards and landed square on the the roof! what a ride! by buddie dident have his belt cranked down so it had enough slack to bump his head on the cage. just a little blood, no big deal . one of the guys we were with ran him it to town to get check out why we stayed behind and tryed to right the rig over. good times.

Got 2 more F-toys through last weekend. Another buggy went thru both directions. Tough, but not too bad. Good times.

I guess we have to look at making it tougher, now that anyone can do it counter clockwise!!!

Good hell....Britney Spears is a *****!

I can't really "brag" about taking her down...but I'd be willing to bet that this is the farthest anyone in a grocery getter has ever made it LOL. I ran it counter clockwise.

Started off good. First two obstacles aren't bad at all. Don't have pics of those.

Then I got to the main part of the trail. We figured if I was able to get around the MASSIVE boulder on the left side, the rest wasn't too bad. WOW were we wrong.

Burned about a quart of oil in the process.

This is about where I felt that my front tire was just about to start coming back down and level me out...

Then my rear passenger tire lost it's grip on the sidewall...

and this is where I found out that the front end wasn't going to drop back down again and level out.

Winched myself back down thanks to one of the many large boulders up there.

2 1/2 hours later with the help of my winch (and my dad/brothers/friends) I made it back out!

Then went back down the backside.

All I can say is besides the length of recovery time, that was a damn fun trail! I also need a more nimble vehicle. A "full-bodied" Grand Cherokee isn't ideal haha

 

[Badbuggy]

I have run that one a bunch, and you did great. I have only seen a few full bodied rigs attempt it.

 

[307rockdog]

Has anyone walked up past the top of the turn and looked at going up farther and then coming down to the right?? I have been told things are (INPASSABLE) before.LOL

 

[Herzog]

Way to go man, that's cool. We were thinking about running on our way out but we had a rig w/ broken 9" 3rd and tranny. I think I got a good photo of you sideways from all the way down in the wash as we were going by.

Ha yeah...good times.

Thanks for stopping and offering the help though! I would've loved to see someone show me the line. Next time

 

[Olaf]

Great pics and videos!!! I love the smoke! Is that your car smoking or did you bring a smoke machine..

 

[Brosiph4x4]

looks like you had the line great it is hard to keep from sliding in though great job dude i have never seen a full bodie jeep up it

 

[maveric]

I know... It didn't happen without pics, but I got my DD through it CC right before EJS. Guess I better get some pics up. This trail is a blast. Need a few more like it down there.

 

[Evolved]

I noticed that there is not a whole lot of video of people running this trail, I figured I should do my civic duty and add to the little video that is out there (and brag just a little in the process).

We ran three rigs up (counter clockwise), two succesfully unassisted and the third overheated. I know I didnt really crawl much of it but I needed to break in my new creepy crawlers, thats my excuse anyway.
