    Pictures and vids will NEVER do this obtacle justice. I highly suggest to anybody who wants to attempt this to walk it first... You'll see exactly what I was thinking... It's totally disorientating and messes with your mind!!

    Alas, it's doable. I've got just under 12 months to psych myself up for it...

    p.s. Tone, I still have pictures that Chris took - I'll get you them as soon as I can....

    isn't that obstacle the same one that the bronco took a plunge down when its brakes gave out?

    Yup, and there are pictures at the office of other who have not made it and the remenants of a blue Toyota fatality can still be seen in the crevasse. Lisa wanted me to look at them BEFORE I made the ascent - I chose not to....

    1. With a good spotter to keep you on the line this would not be to tough.
    2. Tone, your camera person needs a tripod!
    3. Propper music selection is vital!

    ...There was also that old video ('91 I think) of a full size Blazer/Suburban that lost its brakes on the way down. It went off the opposite side of the back as the Toyota -pretty nasty.

    Everyone lived.
