Ran Red Cone with @UnregistredHypercam2 this past weekend. Some sketchy downhill sections at 20+ degrees, but it was a lot of fun.

It's always amazing how much 20° feels sketchy offroad when paved sections aren't that bad. Those are some gorgeous views.

Jon actually looked at his, I think it was steeper, but I was too busy trying to keep the seat cushion from getting sucked up my butt, I was clenching so hard. It wasn't really that bad, honestly, just remember not to slam on your brakes.

Yup. It always feels worse than it actually is, slow and steady is always the answer for off-road when at "extremes" like that.

Took the ranger on a camping trip in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Also did a number of Jeep trails (with a group). Everything went very well, and despite some initial scepticism from some guys in lifted Jeeps on 35s, the humble Tremor had no issues at all even on the 'difficult' rated trails. Great success!

I had the same situation when up on Drummond. It was fun watching and hearing their expressions. Tremor is amazing

For some lighter off-road fare, I did some camping and exploring with the family in the San Juans of Colorado:

Found an easy, but stupidly scenic road that the rental Jeeps and SXS's don't seem to know about:

Most of this is just training the kids for the real endgame:

I fix Pink jeeps
What was the grade on that hill? Looks really steep from the pic.
It’s called devils stair case. I’m not sure the exact angle but I’d say a little more than 45 degrees. You pretty much slide down it. Brakes can’t stop you.
