what a great trip, went with 6 other rigs- med trail - some challenges- lots of water to go thru, camping everywhere, you will be sharing the trail with hikers, atvs and campers, stock rigs can go up the trail-we had one jeep that did something to their rear of the jeep, made a clonking noise on the way out.
big grizzly bronco smashed his door in but had no problems. part of the trail has tight turns. the view of the mountains is great.

Nice. I wish I could hit something that deep...but, I guess you never know until you try. It looks like fun. I am assuming the ATV behind the jeep in last pic wasn't crossing the water?

Looks like it was a good time playing around in all of that water! I would like to take a run up this trail sometime as well. Jim and Steve...maybe we can head up there sometime this month before your surgery? I will only have a couple more weeks or so to wheel my CJ as it will be in the shop for about 5 weeks having some major work done at Crawlertech. It will be a new machine when they are done with it!

about 100 yards was the biggest.
2 1/2 ft deep but it will change on the weather.
the week before it was 4ft.
