I ran Red Cone and Radical Hill yesterday followed by Middle Fork of the Swan and Georgia Pass. I missed the turn to Middle Fork of the Swan and ended up on a peak with two posts spray painted "DEAD END". I got out and looked down into the valley and saw a dark blue vehicle that must have rolled off the trail. It was pretty far away and pretty crushed so I couldn't make out the vehicle, but if I had to guess I'd say it was a Grand Cherokee or something similar.

I know that a Wrangler rolled somewhere in that area earlier this summer, but it didn't look like a Wrangler. Does anyone know anything about this? The exact location is circled in blue:

I believe that's the Grand Cherokee that rolled earlier this summer.

Sorry if this is a repost. I did actually try searching but couldn't find anything on it. This morning I just realized that for all I knew, there might've still been people in there.

Maybe someone should make a sticky that lists all the known vehicle carnage on the trails?

You probably didn't see it since it was first reported as being on Radical Hill.
