hopefully this isnt a repost. happend in the beginning of the month but worth posting for a reminder. I keep seeing more and more of these articles where people get a brand new jeeps and go out on trails with little experience by themselves and get into trouble. this particular article does not mention anything how much experience he had, but if he wasnt alone there could of been another vehicle to help safely recover him. I couldnt even fathom what his family felt as this happened.

stay safe

What a tragic story. I have to wonder if he had at least been wearing his seatbelt, he might have survived. A couple of years back, 2 guys died in a roll on Freeway ridge due to not wearing seatbelts too. Still, as you have stated, better not to be out there alone.

I was wondering if the seat belt would of helped too. I go up to that area every summer and those parts are very remote with steep ledges everywhere. not some place to go solo for sure.

seat belts people!
