On Saturday evening, Jeff received a call that Allen….a guy we met out on Pritchett last year on Susan’s birthday…..was in town and looking for carnage. So, everyone that was in Jeff’s garage at the moment, working on Redroxx’s new Dana 60 axle seals, decided to go.
We met at AREA BFE entrance at 10:00am on Sunday wondering if it was going to rain. It was pretty windy and a little chilly but off we went. Our first challenge was the Gatekeeper…..



Allen jumped right in and manipulated his big ol truck around the rocks.



Susan has been in a show-off mood the last few weeks. Ever since she gained fame for her tail stand on Widowmaker, she’s been trying to catch the camera. She doesn’t wait around but gets a giant wheel stand on the very first obstacle. Okay, let someone else have a turn SuperStar.



How about Jeff? A couple from the group tried this obstacle off Minor Threat a few weeks ago and now the whole crew wanted to get a crack.



After this very impressive show around the rock, we wondered what was next? Hide Gary Lee, DRTSQRL is coming your way!



Gary Lee’s turn, nice off camber situation over the rock while your roll cage slides along the other side. Loosen up your soft top or the rock will do it for you.



Next is Redroxx with the full width axles. Can she fit?



Yep, no problem. That’s a wide Jeep.



Jim and the Bad Cat came next. Smaller axles and a slightly different line but the outcome is the same.



Nice! Off to Green Day next! Gary tries the waterfall. No, only the water’s supposed to fall. I guess its his turn for the camera now.



Can you drive through that?



Oh yes, you can!



Come on Allen. You can do it!



Hurrah!



BFJ is very nervous. Lots of broken axles for Redroxx on this obstacle. Will the Dana 60 hold?



Yes indeed. First time over the Green Day waterfall!



Jim makes it look like a cake walk.



On to Upper Green Day. Look at that rear shock extension. Very cool!



Here comes Allen up and over the rocks.



Susan gives a final little tire wave.



Another super fun day on the trail!!
