Sorry I couldn't embed it, guessing instagram isn't an authorized source.

WOW - I'd call that an obstacle with consequence!

Not embeddable as it's an MP4. Link works fine though.

wonder if my carb could handle that angle...

[Jim]

You'd find out in the first five feet!

Guy made it look to easy!

Forget hill descent control, I think I'd need hill ascent control for that.

I keep watching this vid - its impressive! At the same time, I keep trying to figure out exactly how steep the climb really is as the angle of the video creates a 'shortening' effect on the near/far distance, which distorts how steep the climb looks. Its still really effing steep - but I think there some POV distortion as well. I keep watching as the jeep tops out and rolls over the top trying to determine how much angle he needs to level out at the top. Its looks like a lot!

That is the exit on Double Sammy. It's steep but there is a little forced perspective going on.

Here is the same obstacle from another angle.

great trail by the way!

there is so many trails in this area.
some will soon be closed and under water as the warrner valley is going to become a dam!

[newracer]

Good thing I plan to go there soon.

Yea, No. Great climb, but not in my rig. Not that I'm afraid of the consequences. But I don't have anything else to drive. Nor can I afford the repairs if it did come back down the hard way.

Would definitely ride shotgun.
