From my recent trip to Moab, a pretty spectacular video of me on Potato Salad Hill. All I can say is that it's steeper then it looks. ;)

Clicky for Potato Salad Hill (http://www.pnwjeep.net/video/MattPotatoSaladSmall.wmv)

Some other cool pics from the trip:

Looked like a bunny rabbit at the top. ;)I'm still amazed I didn't blow an axle shaft or a lose a bead. Here's my spotter running for his life as I crested the top:

He made it to the top? Did you want to see him get out and raise his fists in victory?
:D

Nice! I paused the vid right when you are airborne. Great Vid!

I was out with the CO Chapter guys that week. I left Sunday and missed the chance to meet you guys.

Some day I would like to go there. Nice video but was too quick to shut off.Yeah, I might have had it the second time, but it was the first major obstacle on the first day and I didn't want to break anything. Live and learn.
Matt do have a super 8.8 kit in your 8.8?No, but Avanteone does. I'd like to get to it eventually, but it's not vital.

I was out with the CO Chapter guys that week. I left Sunday and missed the chance to meet you guys.Yeah, I saw some of your pics in the rock-crawling thread. Sorry I missed you.
