Nice shots
I like the one of me towing the jeep up the hill

 

[Stinkyfinger]

Wow, that spot looks a lot different in the late fall with leaves on the ground.

That last shot, with the boulder sticking out on the right. On our run during the Crawl, a friend of mine had to get his 2005 3/4 ton Dodge club cab long bed through that same spot. It was like trying to get an oversize container ship through a canal that's almost too small.

Yeah, some of those areas where really tight a couple of times I was only a few inch's from getting custom pin stripes down the side.
That would of been a huge buzz kill.

I got the pics on to the PC and resized. my son took them and he's just getting an eye for what makes a good shot.

Someone should tell your son, pics of Jeeps do NOT make a good shot, but pics of Heeps getting strapped by a Toyota DO!

 

[landtank]

the strapped Heep and the flexless boobicon with severe front tire rub are my favorites.


J/K actually those jeeps (don't know the letters but imitate a 40) get real twitchy at times. In one shot you can see a nice smoke show. We both had a great time and met some great people.

I can't thank Scott enough for inviting us and others on here missed out on a great time.

 

[peepers]

rick, what tires are those and how did they behave?

 

[landtank]

those are the Toyo ATs. They are really nice on road and did very well on this run and the one you bailed on. I don't think they will handle spring mud very well but all in all a nice tire.

 

[Scott Hatch]

You're welcome

 

[Scott Hatch]

the flexless boobicon with severe front tire rub are my favorites.

Are you talking about the silver Rubicon? Thats Paul Maxwells and his brother was driving and it was his first time ever off-road

The CJ7 that had difficulty was showroom floor bone stock, he said it was the first time he'd ever engaged 4WD

that's too funny, we where blaming everything on him like getting lost and now your piling on Max talked about letting him drive some but I didn't notice him getting in. I'm not sure that would have been my choice for him for his first try.

I'm not sure which one is the CJ7, they all look the same to me. Is that the one with smoke coming out of the tires? The one that was right behind me with the gas cans on back was the one I was watching the most. Sometimes the rock spacing was just right and it turned into quite a show.
