Great pictures. I tried to post to that link Joe but the old dial up ( I know , I know) wasn't having it. I will try to post from work when I go back. I just checked out the forum on the Mormon Pass run. Sorry to see anyone end up like that. On our run we talked about Scuba Steve from VV4W rolling over too (twice as a matter of fact). I mean you (ScubaSteve) no offense but that nickname seems to be a bit of a curse no matter what club you are in. I'll keep checking your Forum for runs. My email is captainbigblue@aol.com ( Big Blue was a boat I used to have. The Jeep just happens to be same color) if you guys are running something you think we might like like shoot me an email. I work most Saturdays but Sundays are usually cool to wheel until it gets hot then we will be at the lake. See you soon I hope. Keith and Lynn

I have learned that going with Joe, I need to get pics of his Jeep, since all the ones he takes are from up on a ridge looking down at it just sitting there :lol: It is always nice seeing your rig in an action shot.

I sure appreciate the shots you take of my Jeep, too. Funny, it's hard to snap photos of your own Jeep especially when you're driving it. :D As always, you got some great shots of everyone. Thanks!!

I don't think I have many of Rob - It's hard to get pics of the trail leader when your 4th or 5th in line. Half the time he was already over the obstacle before I came around the corner to even see it.
Sorry Rob

I tried to get as many as I could of Rob, but like you said Craig, he was usually over the obstacle. :(

That looks like a fun trail, what area is that I cannot place it?

If you were to go north on I-15 you would exit at the Ute Exit, exit #80 I believe. When you exit you will head east for about 6 miles to where the trail heads north. It comes out near the Glendale Exit #90. So it's between I-15 and Valley of Fire. I hope that helps out.

Yeah, I was thinking Valley of Fire area due to the geology but wasnt sure.

Im not certain if my longer wheelbase IFS rig on 33's would be able to make that trail or not. Ive run some harder trails before but that one looks to be towards the upper limits of my/ my trucks abilities. I go over rocks OK its the tippy off camber stuff that I dread. I definately wouldnt try it alone thats for sure, I would end up on that show "I shouldnt be Alive".

I will have to do some further investigation on that trail, it looks like a great run. Id definately have to leave the wife behind on that one though.

Thanks for the info.
:D

I guess I should have mentioned that there are go-arounds for all the obstacles, but there are a few spots that you have to do.
