Mike and I had to run out near 7 Mile Rim and help rescue a rental that got headed up an old mining road. We got them out of the situation they were in and turned around, then we spotted them out to a good road. Then early on a Saturday morning I got a call for 2 jeeps stuck at the bottom of the Gold Bar Waterfall and a Honda Civic stuck on the mountain. So I woke Lilli up and off we went. I drove the 2 jeeps up the Waterfall for the guys and winched the ladies out of the mud on the mountain and we took the rest of the day off. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

Seems like too many off-roaders buy/build a cool-looking, capable Jeep and *then* go out to attain the driving skills, (rather than learn the basic skills first) and/or assume “eh, it can’t be that hard”. I feel a teensy bit bad for these guys, but not a lot. I know my little ‘03 Rubicon with a few upgrades far outmatches my skills or my desire to drive sketchy stuff. With its short wheelbase, I had to come up that obstacle on the pile of rocks at the far left of the screen (far right if you’re driving up it). I was thinking we for sure wouldn’t make it, but we scooted right up with not a care in the world.
