Does anyone know if this obstacle still exists?
I think it is in Ocotillo Wells.
Crazy looking!
Curious if any jeeps have made it over (and I'm not suggesting I would try it - not unless I had a few in me) :crazyeyes:

Best I can tell yes it still exists. I wouldn't want to take my jeep up it but maybe a tubed out buggy with full harnesses and a helmet!! Hang on tight!

Apparently, none of you "boys" have been "man" enough to run that one.

Guys, that was the rig with the fully independent, hydraulic suspension. It's somewhere on this forum. He used it to get over the top.

I've never seen this obstacle, but the breakover angle looks to be so sharp the only way a JK would make it would be to keep the front wheels in the air over the top, at least 'til 3/4 of the chassis clears. That would be a horsepower fueled, eye poppin' ride of a lifetime. Be sure to take the winch off the front, maybe your 1/4 pounder to, and bring ass wipe! Yee-Haa!!:thumb:

Ohh it's still there, And pretty much vertical at the very top.

I thought about it... Then looked over at the wife and saw "the look" and said do I wanna die today??

YouTube "chainlink" and see what that buggy is up close, it's no joke!

There have been other vehicles to make it up the top.... I bet Mel could make it!
