Sunday, April 15, some friends and I decided to run a few trails. 6 vehicles: 2002 TJ, 95 Cherokee, ?? Comanche, 99 Cherokee, 01 Xterra and me. We tried Farmington Canyon but the gates were closed. 10 mile drive up the sandy road for nothing. Then we drove to Bountiful and went to the top by the "B", got stuck in snow, turned around and did Wards Canyon. It was a good waste of 6 hours, but it was better than sitting at home and watching TV.
The drive up the sandy road in Bountiful
Got a tire stuffed pretty good there. A little twisty on this part
The view of some city (I dont know which one) and the mountains in the background.
The 01 X got high centered, then had to get pulled out
After the mud. NOTE TO SELF: NEVER DO THIS AGAIN
95 Cherokee hit a fence. Corner lens, bumper, and fender.
It was fun. We all had fun. I almost rolled (the rock gave way under my tire). The black Xterra almost rolled trying to avoid a tree, but hit the tree with his roof rack. The red Cherokee is the only one to actually hit anything... and I blame the driver haha. Luckily nobody was hurt during any of this.
As for the video of me pulling the sidesteps off the FJ... my friend took his camcorder and computer to a PC shop down the street... and they broke his camera. They said it "fell" off the counter. I have been waiting for this vid since Sunday!! But now it looks like there will be no vid... hopefully they can fix it or at least save the tape. Nobody makes tapes for his camera anymore, that thing is ancient and bulky. Like carrying an RCA camera on your shoulder (I know people out there still have em!) haha.
