    +2 recovery (sorry about the carnage). Did you have one or two lockers engaged or did the traction control system (if you have it) take over?

    I had both front and rear lockers in that is why I kept the wheels rolling at the time I was hoping to drive out of it.

    +2 recovery (sorry about the carnage). Did you have one or two lockers engaged or did the traction control system (if you have it) take over?

    Cool video. When I did that trail a month ago, a girl in a jk did the same thing. Except once she was rolled back on her wheels she flipped out and parked the jeep where no one could pass and held everyone up for over an hour and wouldn't move her rig to a spot where people could get by. That notch gets a lot of people I think. Because of the drop off on the one side of the v. Fun trail.

    Not long enough to get fluids/motor oil to drain out and smoke
