Kelly starts the sheetmetal Carnage! I think he, more or less, drove with his drivers-side on the rock for nearly 10 feet, right after this. Of course, he didn't have much of a choice once he got in there!

Just beyond here, he drove with both Passenger tires atleast 4 feet in the air! :eek:

I can't remember if he made it through or had to back off and go around. I think we were finally able to get him through though. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I had to go around. I made it through on the way down and matched my body damage on the other side! I have to be a little more cautious than Spence, my daughter drives my Sami to school and for some reason, she doesn't think body damage is cool. :(

Again, I caught up to the group and walked forward to see spence and the others working a HUGE rock with a highlift. Turns out that as Terrymac got up next to the rock, the rock slipped and started to pinch his tire. Had he tried to go further forward, they were concerned that the rock would come down on him completely. He was able to back out, and they were trying to slip the rock down into a more stable position. The width of Terry's sami was just not quite enough to make it through that obstacle, so he decided to back off and turn around. Toyota crawlin came up and made it look kind of easy. Amazing how different rigs can change your perceptions of an obstacle.

After watching Toyota Crawlin's rig walk that section, I was kind of bummed I didn't get through. Good reason to go back to Desert Mountain and conquer Terry's Wash again!

Chit-Chat, Duh!!
We also had a great time at Desert Mountain, we drove out said "Hi" to the few RME's left, climed out of the truck to "releave"ourselves, then drove to little Moab picking up the RME signs on our way out. (We didn't want anyone else to get "BURNED" :D :D At little Moab we saw a few of you guys, That awesome Mr. Blacksheep came with us and we all hung out, did the fire thing, then went home. Thanks for these pics JD.:D


Here is my boy Anthony's "little" fire:
