Hearing a voice over the radio saying, "He's not going to try to go up that, is he??? HOLY S---!!!": PRICELESS :D

Some other rigs (with more clearance and bigger tires than mine) failed to make it up, and others made it with a lot of difficulty. My KJ just walked right up. :) Impressed a lot of folks.

Awesome Troy......way to show those fools that a KJ can and will do as tough an obstacle as most other 4x4's.


Where is that at?

There's a trail in American Fork Canyon (south of SLC, UT) from Tibble Fork Reservoir to Mineral Basin (which happens to be the back side of a major ski resort). This particular obstacle has a very easy bypass, and most people just ignore it and go around. I've been up this trail a few times before and always assumed that I couldn't make it. Then one of the guys we were with (classic Scout, about 300" of lift and huge tires) went up, and I thought, "Huh. I bet I could to that." :D
