Nice wheeling pictures.

You need to fire the spotter though!!!! It's like he wants everyone to take the hardest way possible or something??????

I didn't see any place I couldn't get that Hyundai with a little extra throttle and reasoning.......IMHO

It's hard to comprehend the actuall steepness of the hill and the size of the rocks.In my picture you'll also notice im as far right over as possible. Reasoning is that i'd never get over the left side, you have to have a really short wheel base. This guy actually bottom'ed out with a little jeep, let alone a huge durango..

The creepy thing was on the right side of the pics is a steep cliff type hill, and my tire had to pretty much hang off the side. If i was to take more of a center on the slanted rock, if i spun i would of slid down without control and possibly over the edge. My spotter really did an excellent job. I wish i had a pic from behind that area, it looks flat from uphill. Had a great time, but you gotta remember, i was running street tread, full pressure, and have no lockers.

I bet the shoulder is very soft just outside of your lines HS.

Out here in the real world (the midwest and east coast) our land isn't nearly as hard and forgiving as your desert is.

Had he been closer, he may have rutted the area, had slid on off and over the edge! After a roll over against a tree, that rock would have looked very good!!
