Here is some footage of Hell’s Gate which I’ve collected over the week:



It’s been a busy week. Today is Poison Spider, my 12th trail since Friday.

Gotta say the shot of Grandpa's Jeep with its right rear wheel off the ground and the river in front and below is outstanding! Stan, you are the Grand Master of flatfender wheeling! Hope your repairs went without incident.

BDouglas's jeep reminds me of an old article in one of the jeep magazines.  "Finishing what Willys Started."  Here is a big "Whoo Hoo" from Alabama.

I wasn’t sure if I would belly out or not and if I start sliding, I don’t want to flip over or break an axle when I impact the bottom. Billy broke his front axle shaft on the obstacle. We got back to camp about 8:30 that night. We we need to get together in Moab and give it a try.

Edited.

Jeff’s leaving Friday after the Fun Run. I’ll be here Saturday and we will probably do something, just not sure what. Saturday is the busiest day fir EJS and the have groups on just about every trail so we may be struggling to find something that’s not busy.

Really great view that you could only get in a jeep, or maybe a jeep wannabe.
That's me on the right, I'm from Northern Utah, Billy Douglas (Bdouglas here on the page) from Alabama whom I just met, and Jeff Petrowich (jpet) from Illinois, whom I consider one of my greatest friends. All people who I have met due to this forum and our little jeeps. And we are sitting there discussing jeeps and life and such, like we have know each other for our entire lives. And casually doing it in a very inaccessible and breathtakingly beautiful place like it was the local bus station.
Amazing!!

LOL, all I could think of is someone on the highway will have a wreck wondering if you are OK. 

Looks like quite a line of rigs waiting their turn in one photo. You guys are going to wear out the trails if you keep it up. Have fun and stay safe, Oilly
