South-West Utah Sand Hollow 19th-23rd

[sswens1]

Were doing Thanksgiving in St George this year and taking the Jeep. Going to be down there for a week(Sun-Sat). I don't know my way around sand hollow but I'm going to try anyway. Would anybody else be in the area or interested in joining up and doing some wheelin any of these days except thanksgiving? I can't wait to check it out.

Just us today we ran the nasty half today we believe, Awesome! Got some good directions from kungfufighter06 thank you. followed the dunes all the way to the bluff and came back down along the west rim. I cant believe how cool this area is

I got a passenger front tire 3-4' in the air according to my wife on the last one when my rear driver fell in that gaping hole.. Glad it came back down

Made it there today again, met some great folks that are friends of Kungfufighter with some BEEF rigs. We ran milts mile before they got there then ran TNT. I needed a winch and had to take one "bypass"(after trying the main chute) that was a bit off camber with bad consequences. Fun day, got a little body damage, but that is inevitable and acceptable. Really felt small next to all those burly v-8's and 54's.

Winched

Success
