He dropped the f-bomb ("This is f-ing awesome!) about 5 minutes into 197, then had to drink a beer to "take the edge off" after some of the more gnarly parts.:scared:Megawatt said:Cool! Looks like a good trip. I'd like to get my dad to go with me one of these days. He'd love it.
How did your dad like it?

All in all, he had a blast and was amazed what our Jeeps can do.

Is that to minimize the chance of rolling or were you all just wanting to enjoy flexing? It is hard to tell from the photos but it looks like you could take a slightly higher line. Am just wondering because I REALLY do not want to roll my Cherokee.

adamusmc2002 said:Yeah, with most spots at Evans, rolling isn't a concern, because there is something right there next to you to crash into Actually, you're usually scraping against it already, so you can't roll. If you haven't been up there, take some time to decide if you want to risk body damage, cuz if you don't, don't go to Evans. It's possible to make it unscathed, but only if you've been through there and know what lines to take.
Hope this helps.

noutlawjeeper said:it funny you say this because when I was up there last weekend 2 of the 3 yota's were bobbed, with the last being a long bed. The only person to not get any damage that day was the long bed yota. He just got his truck and has only been there 3 times. I was amazed he made it through 197 without touching anything.
I, too, will be at the kenny concert tonight.
adamusmc2002 said:Well, you don't have to take my word for it, but those are yotas, and we drive cherokees. If you can get through Evans without damage, good on ya.
Shouldn't you been downloading pictures, or something...? :twak:adamusmc2002 said:Ah, cool.
