Cool! We plan to run that trail again when Todd's Jeep is back together, so you, Alex, jerry, and the rest of the AZ crew can run it with us

Here's the pics of the trail leading up to that waterfall:

Right after that little climb in the above pic is the big waterfall that I posted pics of above. There are 3 other major waterfalls past that one, as well as rock gardens in between. Fun times :D

What are the specs on the Jeep?

Totally stock d00d. Just slapped on some 35s and its good to go. Its a Jeep after all!! Trail rated ya know ;)

Lol, just kidding. It's a late 80's YJ, but the only thing left that is still Jeep is the frame and the tub, and neither have escaped modification. Basics are: 6.0L LQ4 V-8; 4L80E built with all the goodies; NP241 with custom super-short slip yoke eliminator; 14bsf rear w/4.56's, E-Locker, and Blue Torch Fab diff cover; 10b front w/4.56's, E-Locker, BTF diff cover, Yukon 4340 inner and outer shafts with Yukon super joints, high steer, PSC steering box, PSC hydro-assist ram, and panhard rod; 56" spring swap (stock Jeep YJ has 47" springs) with 14" travel Bilstein 5100 shocks; front and rear High Angle Driveline driveshafts with 1350 CV's and long slip on the front; traction bars front and rear; 35" Cooper Discover STT's on aluminum wheels; hydroboost brakes; interior lifted from a 2002 S-10 pickup/Blazer (including the BCM and related electrics and HVAC stuff - yes, it has working AC); 6 point roll cage; Custom dash with Autometer gauges; twin Optima (spit!) yellow tops separated with a Sure Power battery isolator; KC's and rock lights; Warn 8000lb winch with interior controls; fancy Cobra CB driving a Wilson 1000 antenna; Icom 2820 dual band ham rig driving a Larsen dual band NMO mount antenna; Garmin Nuvi GPS; anti-theft and security provided by Viper, The Club, and Springfield Armory

Sure, we will drag them through :p They might want to lower their comp deductible before the run though

Seriously, the only reason we ran that trail was because the Jeep was about to go under the knife for the engine/trans/spring/etc swap and mods. Believe it or not the trail carries a low risk of body damage, but undercarriage damage and breakage are very possible, and a winch is required. Todd figured if he damaged or broke something it wouldnt be as big of an issue since it was getting torn apart anyway. As it turns out the only damage was scraped powder coat on the rock sliders and some new scuffs on the fender flares, both of which were to be expected. It was a fun trail and a good day, but I doubt we will ever run it again.
