    Didn't look that bad except right at the end. I'm sure it's worse actually doing it, but why couldn't a stocker do that? And it's not THAT narrow. It's a good thing he didn't die doing that. Imagine them recovering the tape somehow and he's left behind that whimpering legacy. LOL!

    Cool

    Thanks! I saw this AFTER I did LB and he was full of himself for sure. It was intense and it didn't help when Biju, Jay and Lisa who had said they'd at least ride with me up there, backed out, told me repeatedly I shouldn't do it. Lisa even wanted me to go look at the list of people who had crashed/died there! Go to Google Video and search for ML55 and you can see it from inside the ML and hear the chatter on the radio when Lisa is sure I'm gonna crash. There is also a video that 4x4 TV shot (and aired on the Outdoor Channel) of the ML on a trail - and Todd, you're in it too!

    My chest was sore from holding onto the wheel so tight and I was covered with sweat when I got down (which was the worst part) even though I had the AC on full. The guys were great spotters and they made it much easier to stay calm - almost like having Todd talk you through an obstacle!

    I would have thought the Toy was a fatality by the looks of it but then again the Bronco going off the other side didn't kill those people either and I'm not sure it was new enough to have airbags. Todd certainly knows the history of the area and that only one of the great things when you have him as a trail leader - make sure you are on a run with him if you go! If you ask Todd, he'll tell you it isn't that hard and was is just another trail. But then again he spots and wrenches for Giggling Granny and that may be scarier - ask him to post a link to wherever that video lives.

    I'm sure a stock Jeep or a VX could do Lion's Back with no problems.. It's a confidence thing more than anything. A modified vehicle almost always give more confidence.
