Awesome to see Jeeps on a sunny day with leaves on the trees while I sit in snow on a cloudy winters day!, sure is cool to see the Jeeps differences on the trail and how each performed. Very cool thanks for sharing!,

Brings back a lot of memories, Did fordyce the first time in 1993, in my 86 Cj7, the trail has changed a lot over the years

I love both your jeeps they are the major inspiration for my build! I want my jeep to be as capable as Rubicat is in this Video!

Great video! Seeing as how my fiancé has caught the fever and bought a Willy’s of her own we loved the spur of the moment trip with just the two of you. Great filming and editing as usual. I thought we were about to see the end of rubicat for a second lol. Sincere thanks for putting in the work. [emoji106]

LOL!! Thanks and it's awesome that your significant other has caught the bug too :thumb:
As far as Rubicat goes - had I stayed on the gas for just a bit longer, she would have gone over for sure :crazyeyes:

Killing it! Great vid, call me next time you need a 3rd wheel?

If you're willing to make the drive, you'll be hearing from me :D

Yet another epic video. Even better when streamed to the big screen. Thank you for allowing those of us who dream of these adventures to take part in your adventures.

Glad to hear it still looked okay on a big screen :yup:

Just finished watching. Awesome video!

Thank you, we're so glad you liked it :cool:

Awesome video! I thought you were going over for sure. So glad you didn’t. Thank you for sharing with us!

LOL!! Thanks and so did I :crazyeyes:

Great pair of Jeeps to make a really cool video. Little pucker factor towards the end there, but its all a good day in trailing. Good job though, cant wait to see some more videos.

Thank you. We are fortunate to have 2 Jeeps built up as nicely as they are. We're glad that you enjoyed the video :cool:

What a great video and such an awesome trail!
I couldn’t help but wonder if you’d have had better grip on those early rocks if you’d let down those tyres?

Cool
Patrick

I know that Cindy and I are kind of new to this whole Jeeping thing but how much lower do you think would have made a difference?

Wow, that was close! Great video.

LOL!! Yeah, it was pretty close and kinda took me by surprise. Had I stayed on the gas for just a bit longer, this video would have ended with a recovery :crazyeyes:

Ha firefiox is throwing a fit with HTML5........:grayno: ok fixed.........was transfixed by the whole thing...very nice save in the end!!

LOL!! Glad to hear it and yeah, I got pretty lucky. :cool:

That flop was super lucky, looks like a fun trip

It was a ton of work to wheel and film this but we did have a ton of fun.

You guys rock! That video was beyond amazing! To echo everyone else, the skill and ability you guys have to be able to wheel one of the hardest trails around and film when it’s just you two is amazing! I love watching the progression of your filming and editing skills over the years. I can’t wait to see where it will be even a few years from now!

With all the filming we were doing and the fact that we would both have to wheel, we did have some doubts as to whether or not we could do the whole trail and with sun still shining in the sky. It was a ton of work but a lot of fun. Glad you liked it :)

Great video as always. Looks like a very challenging and scenic trail.

Thank you. The trail is tough for sure but we kind of made it look tougher than it needs to be due to the lines we were taking. Granted, there are lines that you can't even begin to start without 40's that we skipped in the interest of saving time :crazyeyes:

Grand merci pour cette vidéo, ça me fait toujours autant rêver !

Thank you for this video, it always makes me dream!

We're so happy you liked it :)

Awesome video would love to do that trail one day.

If you do, I would highly recommend you do it with Sierra Trek as they insure the water flow is low enough to cross safely.

That was an incredible video. Fordyce is definitely on my bucket list. That’s crazy you guys did it alone plus getting all of that sweet video, I’m sure that was a huge day.

Thank you. It took a LOT of work to wheel and film this trip in a day. Didn't help that we didn't really plan to do this run and got a late start. Fortunately, we have really long days up here in the summer and that helped a lot. Of course, knowing the trail and having 2 JK's running EVO DTD's helped a bit too :D

Gorgeous trail, makes me want to grab the keys and go for a ride !!!!!

Awesome! :thumb:

Really enjoyed the rocks, trees and water all in one place. You had to do a lot of running/walking to film this too.

Looks a bit different with a bit of daylight. :cheesy:
We were beat after this and if you can believe it, I had a bit of whiplash too :crazyeyes:

Awesome to see Jeeps on a sunny day with leaves on the trees while I sit in snow on a cloudy winters day!, sure is cool to see the Jeeps differences on the trail and how each performed. Very cool thanks for sharing!,

I thought a few of you might enjoying seeing a bit of summer :cool:

Great video!! Enjoyed it with my morning coffee........looks like a great husband/wife wheelin rivalry............well done!!

LOL!! No rivalry between Cindy and I - just Moby and Rubicat :yup:

I love both your jeeps they are the major inspiration for my build! I want my jeep to be as capable as Rubicat is in this Video!

Rubicat in this video is a great setup and one that's a hell of a lot more attainable than Moby.

WOW! Great video, enjoyed every minute. No terrain around my neighborhood like that. Great examples of rock crawling like it should be done.

Hittin' the trail on a whim sure beats sitting around trying to figure out, "What are we gonna do for lunch today?" It's super nice with two Jeeps so the, "Don't wheel alone rule isn't violated. Twice as much fun to. :thumb::thumb: and a snap!

Man that was a great video. I almost dropped my phone on my face when Rubicat almost went over. Wife and I were watching the video in our bed, lol.

Guess you'll just have to plan a trip out west some day! Glad you liked the video :yup:

It was a lot of fun to do and yes, I got pretty lucky with Rubicat. :crazyeyes:

Great video!!!

That has to be the best part about having 2 Jeeps that you can take out - still be able to go out alone without really being alone. :yup:

LOL!! Funny thing is, I think it felt a lot spookier climbing up winch hill 1. Winch hill 5 happened so suddenly that I didn't have time to think - just react. :crazyeyes:

Yeah, that happen super fast! Great driving skills while sitting sideways :eek:. The first winch hills is crazy intimidating. I can't believe you guys made it look so easy. I've seen tons of you tube videos of that obstacles where people are just stuck it didn't even look fun.
