Braden - thanks for the pictures. My camera never seems to come home with pictures of my rig.
Ollie - after those couple waterfalls, we had a nice drive through a narrow canyon with some flower-filled meadows here and there. After being dumped out onto the loop that our group ran just before that, we spent about 20 minutes looking for an outlet West to the highway. Because Nikos was trying to find us, we abandoned that plan and just headed back to camp via known paths - haulin' a** and kickin' up dust!
Braden, do you think you tore off your shock mount on that waterfall? You made it up without any trouble, but everything after that was relatively flat.

I think it broke on Poleline rd, but I'm not sure. I doubt it happened on those waterfalls.
I've got T&J working on the jeep right now. They are checking the travel on all 4 corners to make sure I'm not bottoming out the shocks, installing limitting straps to prevent over extending the shocks, welding on custom fabbed heavy duty lower rear shock mounts, and installing lower control arm skids.
