    Here is the other ledge.

    As for the tripod, if you saw what she had to hike up to get a decent spot...she was a trooper for sure.

    My next video series will probably be on either BFG KM2 MTs or the Procomp AT extremes off of my expy. I will not trail a light weight tire again. They are the perfect cosmetic/weekeind warrior AT tire though.

    Yes, but not the same lines I took. NJVX99 was there, he made it up one of em, but took a different line.
    You definitely could not do poser rock, I rode the bumper halfway up that rock and subsequently back down. It did exactly what I planned it to do

    On a side note, the spare tire never touched the ground, even on the vertical "poser" rock you will see in my gallery. It would have to get past the draw bar first.
    here is a link to the first half of photos we took: My two boys had a blast in the back of the VX and slept on half of the trails, they can sleep anywhere.
