    I'll be there and willing to push my truck (if it's not broken).

    BTR, Moab Rim, etc. I'm game. Not sure I'm ready for cliffhanger again though. That was a challenge.

    I’ll be at rock therapy. Not familiar with the trails mentioned or whether my truck is capable, but I will also be trying to get away from the typical trails like hell’s and TOTW while I’m there.

    I did steel bender "safari route" on accident.. Little tougher than normal steel bender that takes you to the big wall/waterfall obstical. Didn't attempt it and went back out the same way in. Good times eh @Skootter14

    The drop is the best part!

    Steelbender really isn't that hard overall.

    We would rather of done steel bender ha. Trails offroad lists the other trail as "flat pass" with an extreme drop into it. It was tons of spotting through most of the trail.

    Well here's the route start of the trail once you cross a creek you start to climb. I was on 33s then, I'd do it again now on 35s and geared. Not sure about the waterfall up into the actual steel bender trail though haha

    I think the main point here is that if you did that on 32s open/open, those aren't hard enough trails. :luvya:

    That's me. And my driveshaft is fine, unlike the rest of my truck is currently. :pout:

    It’s pretty gnarly, and I’m sure even worse now than when we ran it 3 or 4 years ago, and took the go around.

    you can get to the bottom of it easily enough and do up chuck at least. that's the up ledge with a v cut in it at the bottom of high dive.

    seems like high dive is super steep but not back until you are dropping your passenger front which unloads your driver rear significantly...when in doubt, throttle out, but it'll drop you hard in the rear... at least you won't flop tho

    Yep, it was above my pay grade last time. I’ve run BTR 3 times and still have yet to finish the whole trail: blown up 3rd, took too long, blown brake line. One day . . .

    Super rad trail though.
