We made it to here... took about 6 to 7 hours to get 6 rigs this far... I figure this is about halfway maybe?? And although we used a winch and strap before we got to the trail, nobody ever winched off an object the entire day. Somebody did every obstacle unassisted and then there was some winching and strapping to get other people up.

because the thought had left the building for one driver and he drove right into the washout where you turn to head up the trail, and he got stuck ha ha


and we all did complete the day under our own power.

I THOUGHT THIS PART WAS PRETTY IMPRESSIVE...

Considering the style of driving required for this particular day on the trail.. a D30 shaft and a destroyed sidewall is a small sacrifice.
