    You can build any vehicle to rock crawl if you have the bucks.

    That was textbook. If he’s gonna say trucks can’t rock crawl, then I’ll just say jeeps can only mall crawl

    Come out to CA and play in the Sierras. We do stuff like this all the time on mild builds. It’s all about lines and knowing what you can do.

    No but same area. This was up on Bald Mountain. Route called Hollywood Hill. For those who do not know. Bald is granite playground for us. Miles of open trails of all difficulty levels. Dusy Earshim is a BAD ASS multi day run, similar to the Rubicon, more difficult, better scenery, less traveled.

    I could have driven around those rocks in a stock truck and beat him to the top. Is it a pride thing of saying you went over some rocks? Boredom? I should put my truck on 4 treadmills and have them incline and decline like a damn OK GO music video.

    There is no "around" those rocks; that's why the trail is rated advanced. It's fine if you don't understand offroading, but you don't need to belittle people for their hobbies.

    Seems like people do it because they think it's fun.

    I'm not belittling anyone I'm looking at the grassy rockless area right next to the rocks that leads to the top.

    The red circle designates an area that is neither a legal trail, a passable trail, a bypass, or the "top."

    So the only legal way everyone has to go to get through a trail is to pass is over those rocks? Serious question. I've never heard of a real trail where you legally had to with no other path.
