Hey so me and my dad are going to the rubicon this sunday for a day run. We are going to ls or maybe buck if we have time, then coming back out from loon. Is anyone else gonna be up there? My dad just wanted to let some people know that we are going, in case we break down or something. I hope that doesnt happen, but who knows.
I hope they made it ok.
Ya we made it ok. I went through soup bowl in my truck with the help of my winch! I dont know if that really counts as making it, but it was cool anyway. It was a great day and i put some new scratches in my truck... but still no dents in the jeep. I'll add more pics when photobuckt works for me again.

Not sure if winching counts as making it, but at least you had the guts to try it. I need to try it some day 😳

Great pics. John just blows past soup bowl on his way to Little Sleuce. 😂

There is only one person in this club that actually has proof that he has made it through soup bowl and that is Bender 🍺
I've got a pretty cool picture of Brad hitting it with his son sleeping in the passenger seat somewhere. Can't remember if I had any of him completing the obstacle or not though.... 🤷

Did it change because there's also video of you backing down it right before I made it. 😛

I agree, we need proof 😁
Ask John where his proof that he made the box is 😂

Don't let John fool you. He backed up to the very end to take that photo 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
Ya we went to sluice box and turned around, and DANG.. those rocks are massive. Way bigger than i thought they were, and i knew they were pretty big already. But i got some more pics of the trip anyway.

Now that would have been more challenging than running it forward 😎 I must be a damned good driver to pull that one off

Interesting line chocie there. I think you may have been really glad that you had a Toyota wheelbase at that point. 😀
Haha ya, i didnt really try to take that line.. it just kinda happened. I ended up backing out and going around. But i was impressed at how well the jeep did with no lockers or anything. And i was surprised at the flex even with the short arm kit.
