Trail clean up, rubicon

[chicago]

Brian on the soup bowl...
He made an initial stab at it and could get NO TRACTION. he then backed off, turned driver climbed up the back ledge and walked it over and UP to the right of the obstacle. This shot was right when he made it look !! Very cool!
Im wishing now that I had tried it at least!!

NEW Little Sluice

View looking down from the top of the trail. Theres a red Jeep in there...RIGHT AFTER I took the pic...he broke his PS axle!

OF COURSE....I needed pic proof that I DID IT!!
Unfortunately, I thought about it AFTER the hard part was done, so theyre not that cool...
There were of course crowds all around, and that added some additional stress.

Looking good!

That is the traditional line up Soup Bowl, they must have moved the big rock out of the way. The first photo is of me doing the Soup Bowl last summer, and the second photo is what it looked like last month. Even buggies were having trouble on it with the rock in the way.

That's RAD!!
They did something different there as it actually looked pretty " do able". Can't say that I've paid that much attention to it in the past as we've always just kinda motored along past it.
What was cool about this run, was there was no real hurry. Usually when we run it, it's sort of a go, go, go event, trying to get to the next camp (springs)... Running it this way was way more relaxed and there was time to stop and watch other rig and drivers and just enjoy the trail more as well as the obstacles.

Hard to describe.
