Great video Veyron1. If you like trekking, then there is a route to get all the way to the base of the waterfall you posted. Its a very nice sight.

Will join for off-roading next year.....when my Jeep is 4x4 again!

@ex670C; The MM540 driver was cautious, and drove the way he was supposed to. No hanky panky. If I get down to pin a detailed report mentioning each & every ride's slush & rock-management scenarios, I doubt TBHP would have enough server space....but the point is, it's W-A-Y too lengthy to be expressed in mere words..

Nobody was doing donuts. At least not properly. Only the Endy pulled off a couple of clean 180's & 270's. But at the expense of environment? That's harsh. I'm all for the green revolution, but once in a while, you've got to cut your wild side loose...

And as for the pics of 4x4's at "obscene angles"....well...there's a problem there. I was actually cheering along with the crowd while all of that went by...forgot to take pics of 2 gypsys "flying"...what can I say..got too engrossed...but next time, for sure...

@MF; sure, why not? I dunno much about trekking, but will give it a shot... come along, & we can plan an elaborate trip...

Perhaps one should arrange a TBHP off-roading meet..for & by, TBHPians...it's high time, after all the drives & rides...now THAT, would be something to look forward to...

Bait has worked boss.

and let me tell you that riding as a passenger with you is better than driving on your own. Im in and ill get cracking for your cherokee radiator. Will call you and get details. Should be possible to get repaired here...or is it that bad.. I think it can be done locally. If it'll help my friend owns Teksons the radiator manufacturers. We'll ask him for an opinion.
