Yeah, it never looks as hard on videos as it is in real life. OTOH we would put you in the back, if you start to hop we'll put you on the wire.Is that the upper fall that most winch up?
Looks FUN!!!
I think your rig will walk right through that.

Well... If I can't make that, I've got NO BUSINESS running rubicon or fordice. I'll be really bummed if I can't run this trail without a strap or cable.
I'm in!!

I run the Rubicon and Fordyce without ever winching and I have had to winch on that climb at the end of Budweiser. The rest of the trail is fairly easy but personally I think that the last obstacle is a good challenge.
Buds a fun trail. Wish I could join you guys, but work it is!
The waterfall could be easy, or hard. It just depends on how stacked it is. Ive seen videos of jeeps on mild lift/tires drive right up it cause it was stacked like a stair case. When is not all stacked up, its a different story.
I took the Rover on it back in the day when I had it. The waterfall was all unstacked and pretty intimidating. Talk about pucker factor going up that in a heavy full size SUV....
take pictures!

Great day and everyone wheeled great. No breakage-which is nice and the weather was perfect.
Can't believe I haven't run this before or for that matter heard of it. Great little trail. Lets hope they leave it open. Adopt a trail?
This BUDS for you-us

and one of the things that I love about Reno is that you can just hit the trail only minutes from home. It is great to be able to drive to the trailhead and just air down and be on your way instead of driving hours and fighting traffic to get some wheeling in.

This obstacle was not too bad, but once you are past the notch there are some rocks that are in exactly the WRONG place. It would be nice to have front wheel drive only here to maneuver around them.
The last obstacle is no joke! Most of us had to winch to make it up, the rock is polished and slick and covered with dirt for virtually zero traction.
Of course just when you think it is impossible, some noob in a pickup with an open front diff schools everyone and makes us look dumb. Great job Chris! If you weren't hooked before I imagine you are now.
Krusty Krab made it up too (he didn't even need his engine running to do so...).
