Next time I'm in a small group I would hit wentworth springs just for the experience of trying both entrances but if my next trip is a hummer trip I'll do whatever the masses want or what Bebe recommends for us

Disclaimer: This is not a wayalife film with extensive amounts of editing super cool music highlighting the coolest obstacles but a 25min video that is fast forwarded through the slowest parts and in real time for major obstacles to show a good amount of our experience through the rubicon trail.

If it gets boring you can fast forward to the highlights.

Squeaky hitting little sluice: Starts at 11:30 but fast forwarded and then in real time at 11:45

My favorite part of the video when I knocked my hi lift off climbing up an obstacle 19:20

literally right after that our experience and views at buck island lake around 21:40

enjoy!

Haha the chipmunk narration is hilarious! That does look like a super fun trail, it looks tight for H2's+ but doable...I think it's officially on my bucket list. I'll bring plenty of spare parts :)

We were taking a lot of the tougher lines, the little sluice is bypassable. the line where I hit my hi lift jack off is bypassable and in spots where its not bypassable: give it hell then winch if need be.

It took us 2 full days, thats with hanging by the lake, taking our time, trying challenging lines. In a group with 35in t bar cranked H3s 3 days.

Seriously, perhaps Chris should perfect the H3 and then sell the blue prints and stuffs to GM so they finally produce a proper off road vehicle lol.

Couple of things:
Didn't want to take big truck on unknown to me trail. Second, it was at ORE at that time. It did tow trailer to recover GMC and towed GMC back.
